The correct answer is: The speed of sound is faster in the water than in the air.  

The speed of sound is different between those two mediums because they have different densities. Since, water is denser than air, more energy is required to generate a wave but once it stars, it travels faster than it would do in air. Sound waves’ travel can be presented by particles that transmit the energy one to another as they bump. The sound speed is lower in the air (than in water) because particles are far apart, so they travel further before they collide.

ASHA 777 [7]

The correct answer is: b) directional selection

Directional selection is a type of natural selection in which an extreme phenotype is favored over other phenotypes. In this case, phenotype of large crickets will be favored, because they cannot be eaten by lizards. Large crickets are advantageous in surviving and reproduction. This will cause the allele frequency to shift over time in the direction of that large size phenotype.

Answer:

To maintain this balance, the Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium Principle states that a population should meet five main assumptions. There should be random mating, large population size, no mutation, no selection on the gene in question, and no gene flow in or out of the population.
