When a mutation has an effect that helps a species adapt to an environment, and specimens of both genders have it, it will end up taking over, causing evolution to gradually happen.
Explanation:
Natural selection is the mechanism that is responsible for the evolution of organisms.
In the given case, the Freshwater shrimp has been introduced to a pond in which the two species with variations are introduced.
The <em>C. cantonensis </em>is brighter in color whereas the <em>C. multidentata</em> is mottled drab in color. The predator fish can feed easily on the species which is brighter therefore <em>C. cantonensis</em> is more susceptible. The mottled drab species is not easily predated by the species.
The 30 % offsprings of <em>C. cantonensis</em> can survive till the reproductive age whereas 75% of C. multidentata. This shows that natural selection has acted on the color of the shrimp species selected against the predator fish species.
The species with mottled drab color is the result of the differential reproductive rate.
Explanation:
As I think option D is the correct one.
A plant retains about 23% of energy from the sun.
