2.   2 3/5.

3.   2 1/2.

step-by-step explanation:

6 - 3 2/5

= 6 -   17/5

= 30/5 - 17/5

5 1/4 - 2 3/4

= 21/4 - 11/4

= 10/4

= 2 1/2 (answer).

the answer is; biodiversity resulting from few ancestors

adaptive radiation occurs when a population is subjected to a large natural environment with spatial ecological variations. the parts of the population in the different ecologies begin to adapt to their local environments. due to non-random mating across the large populations, this causes the different populations from the large population to speciate within their local environments. they, therefore, diverge to different species sharing a common ancestor.
