Answer:
The correct answer is - D. natural selection.
Explanation:
Sexual selection takes place due to competition between individuals of the intraspecies same-sex and of mate choice which driving the evolution of reproductive traits.
Sexual selection is a mode of natural selection as it leads to the evolution of specific traits. Other examples or options are not related to sexual selection directly and are not affected by sexual selection.
Epiphyseal plate is the structure within a bone that contains cartilage
cells that divide and increase the size of the bone until adulthood.
The epiphyseal plate, also known as epiphysial plate,or physis, or growth plate, is a hyaline cartilage plate in the metaphysis at each end of a long bone or diaphysis. The plate is found in children and adolescents; in adults, who have stopped growing, the plate is replaced by an epiphyseal line<span>.</span>
Since the means of reproduction have changed, the population of peacocks would probably start losing their pretty feather colors due to the fact that over time females would be mating with the containing the other trait (and possibly not the pretty feathers). This would then produce offspring with ugly colors but also with the desired trait. This would continue on and on until those with the desired trait outnumbered or possibly extinguished the now unnecessary vibrant feather colors.
Answer:
A potential
B kinetic
Explanation:
Kinetic energy can be defined as an energy possessed by an object or body due to its motion.
Mathematically, kinetic energy is given by the formula;

Where, K.E represents kinetic energy measured in Joules.
M represents mass measured in kilograms.
V represents velocity measured in metres per seconds square.
Potential energy can be defined as an energy possessed by an object or body due to its position.
Mathematically, potential energy is given by the formula;

Where, P.E represents potential energy measured in Joules.
m represents the mass of an object.
g represents acceleration due to gravity measured in meters per seconds square.
h represents the height measured in meters.
Both potential and kinetic energy is affected by an object's mass.
