Large seeds carry more resources than small seeds and tend to have a higher rate of survival, especially after being dispersed by a bird. predict how the local extinction of toucans will affect the palm population over time. drag the terms on the left to the appropriate blanks on the right to complete the sentences. a lower smaller the same larger decrease will not increase a higher stay constant will if palm seeds have higher fitness than palm seeds (in the presence of toucans), then the fitness of palms will over time in the absence of toucans because the large seeds be dispersed and will have chance of survival. submitrequest answer provide feedback next

Let say, for example, if palm seeds which are larger have high fitness than the palm seeds which are smaller then we will say that the fitness of palm will decrease over time when toucans are absent. This is because the large seeds will have a lower chance of survival and they will not be dispersed.
Largest palm seeds where some are the size of marbles inside a thin-skinned fruit which is too big for most birds especially for toucans which have a big mouth. If toucans disappear the palms which need big seeds have a good luck because of no seed dispersers.
Some trees like jucara which are genetically predisposed and make small seeds have started to dominate the forest and thrive.

Genetic engineering is the answer.
