The lesson question for this lab is “What is the effect of the type of food available on the frequency of different types of bird beaks?” The the lab procedure you just studied should help you address this question. Will it? Explain.

Yes, this lab will address the lesson question.
The procedure shows two different food situations—three foods and two foods.
However, the initial populations of birds are the same.
Therefore, at the end, you can compare generation three for each food situation and measure the effect of the food change.
Typically, a lab procedure designed to investigate the relationship between food types and beak types would involve the following elements:
If the lab procedure you studied includes these elements, it should provide you with the necessary information and observations to address the lesson question by allowing you to investigate how the availability of certain food types might lead to the prevalence or rarity of specific beak types in bird populations.
