The answer is B. This is called genetic shift. The pups with advantageous traits are able to survive until the age of reproduction hence able to pass their genes to the next generation. Few and fewer pups with disadvantageous traits will get to reproduce hence the allelic frequencies of the shark population will shift in favour of increased hunting efficiency.
