In three to five sentences, describe what genetic variations exist in your . Then, using skills and mock evidence from your observations, describe the impact these traits have on the birds' with their and predators. (4 points)

I observed three types of birds! Some had long beaks, some had short beaks, and some had medium-sized beaks. The birds with long beaks were good at poking through the ground to find worms and insects. The birds with short beaks were great at cracking open seeds. The birds with medium-sized beaks were good at both poking and cracking, so they had an advantage and didn't have to compete as much with the other birds. This made them more likely to survive and have babies, passing on their genes to future generations. Their predators, like cats and hawks, had a harder time catching them because the long-beaked birds could reach food in hard-to-reach places, the short-beaked birds could quickly crack open seeds and fly away, and the medium-sized beaked birds could do both.
