Answer: Option 'C' is correct.

Explanation:

Dominant traits are those traits which are visibly expressed in the organisms ( here, lizard)

Recessive traits are those traits in which genes are carried but it is not visible itself in the organisms.

Here, we can see that genes of Allele Z is carried by population of lizard in 50 years.

Here, it is natural selection acting on a dominant trait.

Hence, option 'C' is correct.

Only 10% of energy is transferred from one trophic level to another while the remaining 90% energy is lost in the form of heat energy in the ecosystem.
