Which of the following is most likely to cause a change in the genetic traits in an isolated population of a ground-dwelling lizard species? A. The exposure of an individual lizard in the population to radiation that causes a mutation that is not passed on to its offspring

B. An unusually dry summer in the lizard population's ecosystem.

C. The introduction of an invasive predator that preys on the brightest-colored individuals in the lizard population

D. A fast moving wildfire that burns the canopy of the trees in the lizard population's ecosystem.

​

the two answers are a, the population of birds with large beaks will increase on the island, and c, the trait for large beaks will be passed on to future generations through natural selection. the reason for that is because if the birds that have beaks developed for eating small seeds lose all of their food, they will go hungry and eventually starve because they physically cannot eat the large seeds, therefore making the population of large beaked birds higher. also, if the trait of large beaks are dominant on the island over small beaks, then over time the large beaked birds will reproduce more and more, while the smaller beaked birds will reproduce less and less because they can't survive with the food provided. that leads to the trait of small beaks disappearing and the trait of large beaks taking over the island.

ok yes, but what is the question? as soon as you ask the actual question i will answer it. : )

1)

i))the process of preparing food by green plants in the presence of sunlight is called photosynthesis.

ii) leaf is the site for photosynthesis.

iii) it takes place as,
