Hybridization with bird species already existing on the islands

High rates of interbreeding with mainland populations

Increased rates of mutation to fill habitats

A smaller gene pool than that of the mainland population

One of the classical examples of evolution occurs on the Galapagos Islands with Darwin's finches. All the organisms living  on these islands are descendants of species that have emigrated there, primarily from South America. In studying the  finches populations, researchers have identified fourteen species, none of which are found on the mainland The initial colonizing population of finches most likely exhibited which of the following?
