I would say disruptive selection, because the sudden eruption of the volcano disrupted the circumstances of the lizards, allowing the black ones to survive better because of camouflage against the black rock.

Hope this helps!

the diagram shows the movement of water through a plant which two terms or phrases describe the process shown
azamat

Answer:

B. Open Stomata

C. Transpiration

Explanation:

Even though plants take up a lot of water from their roots, they lose about 95% of it to the atmosphere in the process known as Transpiration.

Transpiration is done for several reasons: it cools the plant down, it enables plants to access the nutrients in the water as the water moves along the plant and it enables gaseous exchange.

The gaseous exchange happens because carbon dioxide comes in from the same holes on the leaf that the water leaves through to the atmosphere, the open stomata.
