Answer:

B. a specific characteristic of an organism.

Explanation:

<u>The trait is a word that shows some </u><u>quality or characteristics of the being</u><u>.</u> It can be physical or mental. It can also be some characteristic that is biological or genetically inherited.

In the paragraph, we see that trait is used to describe characteristics of the animals which are considered attractive by other animals and which are used to attract the mate for creating offspring. Therefore, trait here means <u>some particular attribute, feature, or characteristic of a certain animal organism.</u>

Their behavior is described in the first part of the paragraph (first two sentences), <u>and then the paragraph continues with describing what increases chances of mating which are specific desired traits aka characteristics.</u>
