I'm not sure if I will answer the question you asked, as I many have interpreted it incorrectly. In natural selection, there must be variance in the gene pool, the total frequency of alleles in a population. Now, one of the organisms may have a gene that somehow helps them survive from the selective force much better compared to the others. If this does happen, over time the gene pool will narrow down to become just the genes of that organism that survived better in the first place because the rest would be taken care of by the selective force. So, the alleles and trait come from the first organisms that had the advantage over the others of its species.
Answer: Colonial organisms are the result of many identical individuals joining together to form a colony. These cells are partly dependent on each other to start with. But, later evolutionary events resulted in the obligatory relationships among them resulted in multicellularity.
The need for natural resource should increase.
They help with storing "food" in fruits and foods to make them edible for us people.
I believe it should match as the following...
sight in whales -----> eyeballs in cavefish
balance in monkeys -----> tailbone in humans
attachment point for limbs in frogs -----> pelvis bone in whales
