In a population of ladybugs, a change in DNA of the offspring of one bug produces entirely black bugs. These bugs are more successful in escaping predators. Overtime, this gene becomes more frequent in the population, and the ladybug population loses its red color allele. What type of evolutionary mechanism caused the change in the population?

A. gene flow
B. genetic drift
C. artificial selection
D. mutation

the relative atomic mass of an element is the mass of one atom of that element, relative to 1/12th of the mass of a  1212c atom. to convert to an absolute mass in kg, it is necessary to multiply by  1.661×10−271.661×10−27.

the relative atomic mass is roughly equal to the number of neutrons, plus the number of protons, in the nucleus of the atom.

for elements with more than one stable isotope (different types of nucleus with different numbers of neutrons but the same number of protons), the quoted mass is usually the average mass, weighted by the relative abundance of the different isotopes.
