1. Natural selection is the best of the organisms to live past hardships and survive, leaving the weakest to die. Survival of the fittest.
2. Adaptation is an organism changing to better themselves in a certain environment.
3. These moths were adapted to blend into their surroundings, so as to not be seen by predators.
4. Because of the pollution from the city, the tree’s bark turned from a lighter shade brown to a darker shade brown.
5. A majority of the moths were a lighter gray. With the changing color bark they were seen more by predators.
6. Adaption caused the first darker moths to appear because they learned they needed to blend into the new tree bark color.
7. The change from light to dark gray was very needed for moths. It explains natural selection for those moths who did not adapt to different color gray. Adapting the new tree bark color helped moths been less seen by predators therefor keeping their species more alive.
Answer: The correct answer is -
D. Eukarya has similar evolutionary traits to archaea.
A phylogenetic tree (also known as evolutionary tree) is a diagrammatic representation (in the form of branch diagram) showing the evolutionary relationships among various organisms. It is constructed on the basis of similarities or differences in the genetic or physical characteristics of various species.
In the given phylogenetic tree, archaea domain shows more similarities to the domain eukarya as it has descended after the domain bacteria.
Thus, option D) is the right answer.
Answer:
Domains Archaea and Bacteria
