Answer: The correct answer for the fill in the blank is B) Advantageous traits become more common in a population.

Due to this, the advantageous trait becomes more common in the population.

Thus, the correct option is B)

Answer:

Galapagos finches have various beak sizes that make foraging for food more successful.

Explanation:

Organisms evolve over time due to changes in their genome. These are pontaneous, and occur in DNA at random. These changes are called mutations and form alleles or different forms of a gene.

Over time within a population, the number alleles increase the variation of the population. These variants may confer specific traits within an individual, that may confer a biological advantage.

Thus, the trait may make the organisms more capable of obtaining food, shelter a mate etc. or ensure survival, i.e. they are able to pass on their genes to the next generation.
