Multiple Choice

Question image

Two species of birds look alike and live in the same area. Although these birds look similar, they do not mate with each other because one species performs dancing while the other sings. This is an example of

Multiple Choice

Question image

The flowers of pink tulips open in the morning, while the flowers of lavender tulips open in the early afternoon.
