"When there are multiple mutations in a gene" is the one among the following choices given in the question that <span>is a mutated gene most likely to be passed along to offspring over several generations. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the second option or option "B".</span>
Answer: C. The population size became limited due to factors such as availability of food.
Explanation:
Out of all the choices, C is the most likely to happen since more often then not, food runs out because a species has too many members. C is an example of the environment’s carrying capacity limiting the chipmunk species.
Since we are not told if the chipmunk population is really small, interbreeding may not happen. Predators hunt prey, not eat fruits like chipmunks do (I’m assuming what chipmunks eat.) If there was a predator species that came in, they would hunt the chipmunks instead of competing for the same resources. D just doesn’t make much sense in my opinion because that wouldn’t limit the chipmunk population.
The right option is Courtship
Courtship is a behavior in which different
species interact and select their partners for mating which leads to
reproduction. Most times, the female specie chooses the desired male to mate with before
copulation. Various behaviours such as display
of strength, dancing and vocal utterance are often used during courtship. For the question given above,<span>the type of behavior displayed by the species of balloon flies is an example of courtship.
