<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

An aloe vera plant possessing a trait for extra thick leaves survives a long drought in a desert, while an aloe vera plant that has thinner leaves does not.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>Natural selection occurs when organisms with traits that are well-suited to an environment tend to survive and reproduce at a greater rate than organisms that are less suited to an environment. </u></em>
  • In this case, <em><u>the trait for extra thick leaves in aloe vera plant is well suited to the environment of a desert. Therefore, those aloe vera plants with this trait will tend to be more adaptable to the desert environment and survive a long drought in a desert, while those plant without this trait will die as they are not adaptable to the environment.</u></em>
