MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION

What parts of this paragraph show evidence that is supporting the claim?
"if the large seed plants died out in the Galapagos Island, I believe that the finches with large beaks would go extinct"
"paragraph 2 of the same article goes on to say that finches with small and narrow beaks survive by gathering small seeds of hunting insects. Lastly, the large beaked finches eat large seeds"
"Therefore, I believe that if the large seed plants died out, the large beaked birds would no longer have a food source..."
Answer explanation
The writer pulls directly from the text to show the reader exactly why they came to that conclusion. If you make an inference about something, you must prove why you think you're right by showing exact parts from the text that will help defend your argument/claim.
