Four hundred beetles of the same species were sprayed with an insecticide. Several weeks later, nearly all the beetles were dead. A few, however, survived. Which statement best describes the future generations of these beetles? The majority of beetles in future generations will also die from the insecticide.

The majority of beetles in future generations will also die from the insecticide.

The surviving beetles will not pass on their favorable traits to future generations.

The surviving beetles will not pass on their favorable traits to future generations.

The beetles in future generations will have no immunity to the insecticide.

The beetles in future generations will have no immunity to the insecticide.

The future generations of beetles will likely survive the insecticide if it is sprayed again.

The future generations of beetles will likely survive the insecticide if it is sprayed again.

this age may represent the age of the earth's accretion, of core formation, or of the material from which the earth formed. this dating is based on evidence from radiometric age-dating of meteorite material and is consistent with the radiometric ages of the oldest-known terrestrial and lunar samples.

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.
