Answer: A. Environmental drivers plus genetic variation in the population result in natural selection
Explanation: over geological time environmental conditions change. Organisms do not survive in one environmental niche with traits adapted to a possible future change that might suit those traits. Adaptation is not a matter of choice: adapt if possible or go extinct.
There is a (badly named) concept called pre-adaptation, which is that variations in some existing trait render adaptation to a different environment more likely.
Prokaryotic protein synthesis can be fairly fast because one gene can be transcribed and translated simultaneously. Eukaryotic synthesis is slower, but more precious. They can "check" the mRNA before it is translated into protein.
