Answer:

Coevolution

Explanation:

Ehrlich and Raven observed butterfly species and their host plants. Plant species had adopted a series of defence mechanisms against butterflies. In response the butterflies also evolved new traits to avoid these defence mechanisms.

In this way both butterflies and plants influenced each other's traits and they co evolved. The coevolution can lead to accumulation of lot of different characteristics which can lead to formation of new species and species diversification. Formation of new species will be observed both in plants and butterflies.

When completing Punnett Squares, you cross the letters that meet up. For example, their are two TTs and two Tts. Dominant will always show before a recessive so if it's TT or Tt it will be the dominant version. two tt's mean that it's recessive. In a Punnett Square, one box = 25%.

Part A: The genotypic ratio is 50% TT and 50% Tt. The phenotypic ratio is 100% tall.

Part B: The two Tt's could produce a short plant because there is a 25% that the parents will both give t's.
