Pls answer all the 6 questions.

Dear student

Please find answers below for asked query:-

(a) Title of the graph is Beak size variation.
      An observer can expect  different size of beaks found in Darwin finches. The birds shows different length of beaks.

(b) label on horizontal axis depicts the year. This tells that beak size variation data has been studied from 1977 to 1984

(c) Intervals used on horizontal axis - One year gap i.e. 1977  then 1978 and so on.
     Label on vertical axis of graph- Beak size
     Information on vertical axis- SIze of beak ranging from 0.9 to 10.0.

(d) Units used on vertical axis- mili-metre(mm).

(e) Dry year tends to increase the beak size. This might be an adaptation for finches as during dry period they tend to suck water from deep areas with help of larger sized beak.

(f) Wet year tend to reduce the beak size. This could also be an adaptation as small sized beak is enough to help fiches to drink water or eat fruits from trees.

Hope this information will help you.
Regards
