Question 2
In 1977 a drought occurred in the Galapagos islands. There was no rain for 551 days. Plants dried up and began to produce fewer and fewer seeds. Tiny seeds became very difficult to find.
In 1978 scientists returned to the islands to measure the beak length of the next generation of medium ground finches. Based on the information provided above what do you think the scientists discovered? Use the options below to create a correct answer.
