Answer:

disruptive/diversifying selection  

Explanation:

Disruptive (also known as diversifying) selection is a type of natural selection where extreme phenotypic values are more favored rather than intermediate phenotypes. The disruptive selection favors the survivance and reproduction of organisms with extreme phenotypic traits, and in turn impairs the reproduction of organisms with intermediate traits, thereby changing the allele frequencies in the population in order to favor extreme values. An example of disruptive selection is the beak size of Galapagos finches, where extreme phenotypes of this trait have shown to be adaptive according to the type of food found in each island.

5. The answer is D. Non-renewable resources lay be cheap, but they release harmful carbon dioxide, which pollutes the environment. And eventually, they will run out. They are, as the name suggests, non-renewable.

6. The answer is A. Renewable resources are harder and more expensive to harvest, but they are unlimited and cause little to no harm to the environment, depending what resource you are using.

7. The answer is A. Particular renewable resources ( i.e sunlight or geothermal energy) are unreliable and can only be found in the right places under the right conditions (i.e on a sunny day or a geyser). They're also more expensive since they're harder to access/convert into electricity.

Technology helps us predict future problems and solve them before they even happen, and things like solar panels and dams help us use alternative energy, which is much better for the environment than things like coal or oil.

9. The correct answers are A and D. Biodiesel is made from various oils and animal fats (unwanted waste), and it is renewable.

10. The correct answer is A. Biodiesel is more expensive to make than regular diesel, and more facilities would have to be built.
