Carbon can bond with many elements
Explanation:
Carbon can bond with many elements, including itself, to form macromolecules. Moreover, it can form four bonds, and that makes possible many different arrangements of the atoms in the molecules.
A is <em>wron</em>g. Carbon is among the seven smallest elements in the Periodic Table.
C is <em>wrong</em>. Carbon is found in living things because it can form macromolecules, not the other way around.
D is <em>wrong</em>. Carbon can bond with many other elements beside itself.
Answer:
C. Disruptive Selection
Explanation:
Disruptive selection occurs when two extremes of continuous variation are favored more than intermediate traits.
The extremes of continuous variation exhibited in this species of snail is the color of their shell which allows them to blend with the background of their habitat.
The shady forest of the habitat makes the dark-shelled individuals to be better hidden from bird predators, while the light-shelled individuals are better hidden in well-lit brushy edge areas. This disruptive coloration exhibited by both individuals makes both individuals of this species of snail less vulnerable to predation.
Both individuals of this species both extremities would naturally survive in this habitat as snails with intermediate extremities would be highly preyed on since there is no area of intermediate brightness in the habitat to make them invisible to predators
