Hello,
A geologist finds a large rock containing a seashell. What does this tell you about the area at the time the rock was formed?
The answer might be B. The area was covered by water
C) relatively dense oceanic crust sinking into the weak asthenosphere at subduction zones
Answer:
c. No, because his speed is a result of diet and exercise, not a genetic trait.
Explanation:
Natural selection is the differential survival and reproductive success of some individuals of a population. This is attributed to the presence of beneficial genetic variations in them. Natural selection always targets the adaptive genetic traits. In the given example, a specific diet and exercise led to increased fitness and survival chances of Jumping Jack Flash. Diets and exercises are not genetic traits on which natural selection can be operative. Therefore, it is not an example of natural selection.
