The correct option is Short-term environmental changes immediately affect organisms in the  environment

Explanation:

Environmental changes which occurs over a period of few months to few years is termed as short term environmental changes. The changes may be created by humans or a natural process. The short term environmental changes are triggered by natural catastrophic events like tsunamis, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, hurricanes, cyclones, asteroid impacts. These type of effects has impact on the organisms living in that zone.

The short term environmental changes that occurs due to humans are destruction of habitat, construction of roads, deforestation, air and ground pollution, harvesting of natural resources like overhunting and overfishing.

All these activities destroy the organisms living in the ecosystem, and pollution also destroys the habitat these organisms live in.  

On the basis of the above explanation is:  

Short-term environmental changes immediately affect organisms in the environment.

if the type of the food available changes, then the frequency of beak types will change, because birds with beaks more suited to the available food will be more successful over time.
