The right answer is C. Silt is more vulnerable...

In geology, a silt is a sedimentary formation whose grains are of intermediate size between clays and sands that is to say between 2 and 63 micrometers (the precise limits may vary somewhat according to the laboratories). A mostly silty deposit may be called silt. In geology, Anglicism silt is often used to designate silts.

The silt is the ultimate product of fluvial erosion of the rocks of the river catchment. The silty particles thus consist of very fine debris of quartz, mica and feldspar, or even clay minerals.

Stringers characterize the loess deposits of loess, also known as "slime plateaus", and are common in alluvial deposits. In the latter case, the silty particles release nutrients which have a major interest for the renewal of soil fertility and therefore for their agricultural exploitation.

Since silt is often suspended in water, it can contribute to its turbidity.

Explain the relationship between mutations, adaptations, natural selection, and extinction
Musya8 [376]

Mutations and natural selection cause adaptations. Mutations can cause instant adaptations, while natural selection is the process by which adaptations occurs over a series of generations.  

Adaptations are changes or processes of changes by which an organism or species becomes better suited for its environment.  

A mutation is an alteration of the DNA sequence. Sometimes such alterations code for the same amino acid sequence as the unaltered DNA strand during protein synthesis. In such a circumstance, the mutation is not detectable. However, other mutations alter the genetic code in such a way that a noticeable change in the trait that is associated with that gene is visible. Sometimes such mutations are advantageous and improve the organism's ability to survive in its environment.  

Natural selection is the process by which organisms with more advantageous traits (being camouflaged, being covered with the correct outer covering for the temperatures of that environment, stronger/ larger/ or faster to fight off or run from predators, etc.) are more likely to survive in a particular environment. Likewise, organisms less advantageous traits are more likely to die due to the pressures exerted by the environment (such as temperature, predators, illness, etc.). Therefore, the organisms with the advantageous traits that survive are more likely to survive to find a mate and reproduce. Thus, the advantageous traits are passed down to future generations.
