Larger than average babies are likely to have difficulty being born. The fitness of these larger or smaller weight babies is lower than average-sized babies so human babies tend to born of average size. birds with bigger, thicker beoks can feed more easly on larger, harder seeds. A food shortage causes the supply of small and medium seeds to run low, leaving only larger seeds. Birds with bigger beaks show greater fitness than birds with medium or small beaks. Over time more birds with bigger beaks survive and reproduce. Othe ‘orange and black pattern of a Monarch butterfly serves as a warning to sharp-eyed birds ‘that the Monarch is poisonous to eat and tastes bad. Individuals with the brightest color pattern were More likely to warn off birds and survive to reproduce than those with a dull or medium color pattern. over time and many generations, the Monarch population became more brightly-colored. Con birds, feather color among males is more likely to attract a mate, but also more likely to ‘attract a predator. Over time and many generations, the highest frequency color is for males medium colors, while males with very dull colors and males with very bright colors became increasingly rare, PB. A population of birds lives in an area where plants with medium sized seeds are wiped out by a fungal infection. Birds with unusually large or small beaks would have higher fitness than those with medium sized beaks. Over time the population splits into two subgroups; one that eats small seeds and one that eats large seeds.
