The tail of a male peacock is actually not very good for their survival: it makes them more visible to predators and makes other actions harder.

If the females no longer prefer such tails, other peacocks will have a better chance of mating with the females, because they generally have better chances for survival.

Therefore, the trait would gradually dissappear, and other traits (preferred by females or contributing to survival) would appear instead.

Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

The correct answer is option C. "2+".

Explanation:

A common procedure to test for the presence of antigens is to perform an agglutination reaction by performing an antibody screen. In an agglutination reaction that is graded  2+ the red blood cells start to be broken and medium-sized agglutinates are formed. In this reaction no red blood cells are free, only agglutinates are seen at the bottom of the microtubes. The characteristics of the reaction herein described concur with an agglutination reaction that is graded  2+.
