1)The answer is D.

Thorns are an adaptation that some plants have evolved in order to discourage herbivore from eating the plant. Plants would try to survive when there are environmental pressures (herbivores eating them in this case) so they would evolve to have thorns.

It is not A because bigger leafs (more surface area for absorbing the sunlight) would help plants produce more food from photosynthesis, not thorns.

It's not B because it is an adaptation, not JUST mutation, but it did happen from changing some letters in the DNA sequence to evolve.

It's not C because thorns doesn't help conserve resources from getting used by others. The thorns of cactus decreases the loss of water from the sunlight because it is normally in the desert so it can survive, not protect resources.

iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

When you breathe in, or inhale, your diaphragm contracts and moves downward. This increases the space in your chest cavity, and your lungs expand into it. The muscles between your ribs also help enlarge the chest cavity. They contract to pull your rib cage both upward and outward when you inhale.

Why would a pigeon breeder select the offspring of pigeons with spotted bodies and then breed those offspring? to improve body c
Solnce55 [7]

Answer: The correct answer is- to see what new traits might appear next.

As per the information in the question, pigeon breeder selects the offspring of pigeons with spotted bodies.

Spotted body is a trait that would be depicted by two different alleles ( such as one for black and other for white color).

As both the alleles for the color are represented in the pigeon offspring, therefore, it is a case of co-dominance ( let us take its genotype as Bb, where 'B' is allele for black and 'b' for white color).

When pigeons with spotted bodies are cross bred, they can produce pigeon with spotted and non spotted ( such as black 'BB', white 'bb', or spotted 'Bb' ) body depending upon the allele that is passed to the offspring.

Thus,  pigeon breeder selects the spotted bodies pigeons and then breed those offspring to see what new traits might appear next.
