This an example of directional selection

Directional selection is a type of natural selection whereby the observable traits (phenotype) such as skin color of a population evolves toward one end of a trait rather than the mean phenotype, or the opposite extreme phenotype. Directional selection usually occurs in environments that have changed over periods of time. Directional selection is caused by certain factors such as climate, weather changes, or food availability.

PLEASE HELP I WILL GOVE BRAINLIEST!! What do mutations cause?
goblinko [34]
Mutations can lead to changes in the structure of an encoded protein or to a decrease or complete loss in its expression. Because a change in the DNA sequence affects all copies of the encoded protein, mutations can be particularly damaging to a cell or organism.

Which of the following best describes why in general there are more hares in the ecosystem than foxes.
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

<u>C</u>

Explanation:

The reason why there are more hares than foxes in the ecosystem is because if only 10% of the energy gets passed on to the next trophic level, then you need to have more lower level animals available to supports the animals higher up the food chain. The fox must eat several hares to gain enough energy for growth and development.
