One of the best known of Darwin's sets of observations from his voyage on the Beagle involved a group of birds often called "Darwin's Finches," which were collected from the Galapagos Islands. These birds give us a classic example of a phenomenon called adaptive radiation. Explain what this phenomenon is. Why would this have occurred on the Galapagos Islands, not just to the finches, but to most of the other species found on the island? Be specific--this question is about the Galapagos islands specifically. This explanation should involve concepts like fundamental and realized niches and resource partitioning.
