Answer:

d) descent with modification

Explanation:

According to my research on Darwin's theory of natural selection, I can say that based on the information provided within the question the term being described is called descent with modification. This basically refers to the most dominant traits being passed down from generation to generation, and being modified little by little in each lineage. Which is done through natural selection.

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.

Answer:

D. In an ocean heated by volcanic activity

Explanation:

Most of Earth was covered in water, early organisms weren't evolved enough to walk on land at the time. There are some organisms that feed off of volcanic activity and use it as an energy resource and would adapt to the heat.

<em>"Hot spots create volcanoes on the seafloor. If these volcanoes rise above sea level to become islands, and if they occur in tropical waters, coral reefs will form on them. Since the volcanoes are cones, the reef forms in a circle around the volcano."</em>

<em>-</em><u>https://courses.lumenlearning.com/earthscience/chapter/ocean-organisms/</u>

<em>"Discovered only in 1977, hydrothermal vents are home to dozens of previously unknown species. Huge red-tipped tube worms, ghostly fish, strange shrimp with eyes on their backs and other unique species thrive in these extreme deep ocean ecosystems found near undersea volcanic chains."</em>
