(05.02A HC)Dаrwin explоred the Gаlаpagоs Islands and оbserved variations of certain species. For example, he saw that the mockingbirds on three different islands were distinct, but still similar to the mockingbirds found on the mainland. The level of diversity in an ecosystem can be determined by the frequency of speciation and extinction. If the mockingbirds became extinct, explain how the newly available niches could lead to speciation.
