Answer:
C. Disruptive Selection
Explanation:
Disruptive selection occurs when two extremes of continuous variation are favored more than intermediate traits.
The extremes of continuous variation exhibited in this species of snail is the color of their shell which allows them to blend with the background of their habitat.
The shady forest of the habitat makes the dark-shelled individuals to be better hidden from bird predators, while the light-shelled individuals are better hidden in well-lit brushy edge areas. This disruptive coloration exhibited by both individuals makes both individuals of this species of snail less vulnerable to predation.
Both individuals of this species both extremities would naturally survive in this habitat as snails with intermediate extremities would be highly preyed on since there is no area of intermediate brightness in the habitat to make them invisible to predators
<span>B. The enzyme amylase was saturated, as all its active sites were occupied by substrate starch.
Each enzyme molecule has an active site in which it binds to a substrate to complete the enzyme-substrate complex. This means that there has to be a balance of enzyme molecules to substrate molecules. </span>
<span>Conjugation in which two cells temporarily combine in order to transfer genetic materials. After combination they then divide again, allowing of the information to pass and replace the previous members of the population.</span>
