Answer:

The correct answer is option d, that is, mimicry.

Explanation:

Mimicry in evolutionary biology refers to an evolved similarity between the organism and another organism of other species. The phenomenon may take place between the individuals of a similar species or between the individuals of distinct species. The main objective of mimicry is to safeguard the species from predators, resulting in an antipredator adaptation.  

The evolution of mimicry takes place when the predator witnesses a similarity between the model and the mimic and as a consequence modifies its behavior in a manner, which offers a selective benefit to the mimic.

Air moves into the lungs when the air pressure in the lungs is lower than the air pressure outside of the lungs. This occurs when the muscels of the diaphragm contract.

You can see this by breathing in and out deeply. When you breath in you can feel your chest being pushed up and out by your diaphragm. The reason the pressure in the chest is lower is that when you breathe in you are increasing the volume of your chest. As there is the same amount of air in your chest the pressure decreases.
