text: I know this is a homework question, I edited the book your teacher pulled this out off. My first guess is to say read the middle part of the chapter where evolution is discussed but…\n\nStart by thinking about the organism in question, what is it stereo typically known for? \nThe owl has big eyes, the rabbit big ears and milkweed (well that’s the tricky one I’ll let you do on your own but as a hint why do you think they call it Milkweed.).\n\nThen think about what they eat; \nAn owl eats rodents at night, and a rabbit eats tall grass during the day. \n\nThen think about what type of animal they are; \nAn owl is a predator, and a rabbit is pray. \n\nThe reason an owl has big eyes is to better spot it’s pray at night. Since it eats rodents like mice and chipmunks it has to be fast and nimble and have good eye sight. The bigger the eyes the more light they get, the more light they get the more it can see, the more it sees the more it eats, the more it eats the longer it lives, the longer it lives the better chance it has to mate and pass on the trait for bigger eyes.  \n\nNow from what I have told you figure out why rabbits have big ears. \n\nThen think about why a weed would secrete  a milky sap when damaged, and what animal the plant might protect by doing it, and what the benefit might be.
