The kind of evolutionary effect that has been described in the statement in question is Founder effect. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the last option or option "c". The Founder effect is actually a reduction in genetic diversity that results from a population that descends from a small number of colonizing ancestors.

How many calories are in an average trick-or-treaters halloween stash?
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

The number of calories on a Halloween stash depends on the type of candies and the number of units of each. If the stash contains 5 units of each of these candies: chocolate bars, taffies, lollypops, and candy corn the total number of calories is 1,650.

Calories are the most common unit used to define the energy a specific food gives to your body. For example, an apple has 52 calories, while a banana has 89 calories.

Considering this, in a Halloween stash the calories depend on two factors:

  • The types of candies or products
  • The units of each one

Let's suppose there are 5 units of each of the following candies:

  • Chocolate bars
  • Taffies
  • Lollypops
  • Candy corn

Let's now calculate the calories

  • Chocolate bars = 220 calories x 5 units =  1,100 calories
  • Taffies = 20 calories x 5 units = 100 calories
  • Lollypops = 83 calories x 5 units = 415 calories
  • Candy corn = 7 calories x 5 = 35 calories

Add all the previous results:

1,100 + 100 + 415 + 35 = 1,650 calories in total
