Two lakes are close to one another and sometimes connect when floods occur. Each lake has two species of fish that are very similar. One species has brown scales and the other species has orange scales. One hypothesis for the origins of the fish species is shown below. What does this hypothesis state? A. The fish in Lake 1 and Lake 2 come from different types of ancestors.

B. The fish in Lake 1 and Lake 2 originally lived in the same lake.

C. The fish in Lake 1 and Lake 2 are descended from a common ancestor.

D. The fish in Lake 1 and Lake 2 developed due to geographic separation.

I would think C

Explanation:

I came up with this answer through process of elimination:

A) It shows that they both come from the same speckled fish, so this cannot be the answer

B) I thought this was it, but the chart shows nothing about them having possibly lived in the same lake, only that they came from the same fish

C) The graph shows that they both originated from the same speckled fish

D) This can't be it, because the lakes are so close together

brain development. a child's brain undergoes an amazing period of development from birth to three—producing more than a million neural connections each second. the development of the brain is influenced by many factors, including a child's relationships, experiences and environment.
