Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

According to the phylogeny, the small tree finch and large tree finch share a common ancestor, and their common ancestor likely ate insects before they diversified into different diets. Therefore, statement B is correct. Statements A and C are incorrect because all the finches have a common ancestor, and the large cactus finch and common cactus finch likely ate cactus seeds, not insects. Statement D is also incorrect because the sharp-beaked finch is not shown to be closely related to the small tree finch.
