Because of genetic variation, a species of beetle has two different body colors, red and green. This species exists in a grassy

environment that’s mostly green. A new species of bird that eats these beetles enters the area. Arrange the steps of natural selection in the correct order.
Tiles
Green beetles and red beetles exist in the environment.
Green beetles pass on their color trait to future offspring.
Birds that eat the beetles move into the environment.
Red beetles are eaten by birds, but green beetles aren’t eaten.
The entire population of beetles eventually becomes green in color.

Answer:

1. Green beetles and red beetles exist in the environment.

2. Birds that eat the beetles move into the environment.

3. Red beetles are eaten by birds, but green beetles aren’t eaten.

4. Green beetles pass on their color trait to future offspring.

5. The entire population of beetles eventually becomes green in color.

Explanation:

According to the theory of natural selection, only those species survives which fits closely with their environment. According to the conditions given, there are two genetic variations of the same species based on the color, i.e. green and red. Initially, both red and green are living together in a grassland (green in color). Then, birds enter the same environment because they have food there (beetles). Now, green beetles will take a competitive advantage because of the color and avoid getting eaten by the birds. However, red beetles would be prominent and eaten fast. The green beetles will pass on their genetic variation causing the color to be green in their future offspring and a time will come when there will be on green beetles in the area.

Lana71 [14]
Rhinitis is an allergic condition characterized by inflammation in the mucus membrane lining of the nose. The anti-histamine nasal sprays controls the symptoms of allergy but it has rebound effect which means that though the sprays works well in controlling the disease, it still causes inflammation and damage to the mucus membrane lining of the nose that may lead to nausea and bleeding of nose.
