The galapagos tortoise are biodiverse. tortoises in a more barren area have a flat shell and long neck to help grasp the sparse vegetation. tortoises that live in a more vegetated island, have more round shell and shorter necks. this is an example of

This is an example of natural selection (adaptation).

Explanation:

Natural selection tends to favor those organisms which are better adapted to live in an environment.

As tortoises having flat shell and long neck were better adapted to live in barren area, hence through natural selection those organisms were favored in such an ecosystem.

As tortoises that lived on the vegetative lands were more adapted to live in such an ecosystem, hence through natural ecosystem these organisms were favored and increased in numbers.
