Answer:

Explanation:

Natural Selection refers to the survivability of organisms based on different traits or genes that they have which then get passed on to their offspring. Based on this information we can say that a population of mountain gorillas in which individuals with genes for long hair survive the cold better is the situation in which natural selection is most likely to occur. This is because longer hair in this scenario is a gene that drastically affects the chance of survival for the gorillas and will most likely be passed on to their offspring.
