Answer:
the humus contains the minerals necessary for chlorophyll synthesis
Explanation:
<em>The yellowness of leaves in plants can be attributed to inadequate chlorophyll in the plant</em>. The chlorophyll is responsible for the greenness appearance of the leaves of plants and when it is present in inadequate quantity, the leaves appear yellowish in color.
<u>Some of the minerals necessary for the formation of chlorophyll include magnesium, nitrogen, and iron</u>. It thus means that the humus supplied to the soil of group 1 plant has the necessary minerals to synthesize chlorophyll while the soil of group 2 plants is deficient in some or all the minerals required for chlorophyll synthesis.

Explanation:
Natural selection is the mechanism that is responsible for the evolution of organisms.
In the given case, the Freshwater shrimp has been introduced to a pond in which the two species with variations are introduced.
The <em>C. cantonensis </em>is brighter in color whereas the <em>C. multidentata</em> is mottled drab in color. The predator fish can feed easily on the species which is brighter therefore <em>C. cantonensis</em> is more susceptible. The mottled drab species is not easily predated by the species.
The 30 % offsprings of <em>C. cantonensis</em> can survive till the reproductive age whereas 75% of C. multidentata. This shows that natural selection has acted on the color of the shrimp species selected against the predator fish species.
The species with mottled drab color is the result of the differential reproductive rate.
