उत्तर
Honeycreepers; Hawaiian islands
Explanation:
Honeycreepers are a classic example of adaptive radiation that occurred in the Hawaiian islands. Different species evolved from a common ancestor, adapting to various ecological niches on these islands. Other options are incorrect because penguins did not undergo adaptive radiation in Aleutian islands, sparrows in Bahamas, or jays in Falkland islands as examples of adaptive radiation.
