Answer:
Charles Darwin
Explanation:
Natural selection, most famously proposed by Charles Darwin, states that when presented with an environmental challenge, some individuals in a species will develop adaptations to face these challenges. Successful individuals will be more likely to mate and their offspring will inherit these adaptive traits, and will continue to pass for generations.
In this sense, plants face the challenge of the cold. Those that adapt to the cold will survive and reproduce, those that can't adapt to the cold will die. Eventually, only plants that can tolerate the cold will survive.
You already answered the question in the picture above
I think the answer is B. Immigration must outpace emigration. Hope this helps!
Evolution Due to environmental factors, It may not look it, but, needles are leaves, they collect solar radiation to produce glucose through the process of photosynthesis, however, needles are, some would say, evolutionary superior to leaves. Needles themselves hold in more water due to their dense wax coating, they are very difficult for insects and other organisms to eat, one because of their structure, and two because of their acidity, they can catch sunlight all year long due to their winter resilience( they don't fall, during the winter), and they have less surface area for wind to catch, which leaves them better protected from wind than most deciduous trees, however the surface area can also pose a larger problem for less surface area means less sunlight interception, therefore more are needed to compete against regular leaves. But.. I Digress... Plant needles are 'PROBABLY' initially the result of evolution of narrow leaves due to climate or environmental factors.
Sry its so long got carried away! Hope this helps xD
