A pond is polluted with chemical and a few frogs in the next generation are born with shorter legs. The shorter-legged frogs are less able to leap and catch flies. What will MOST likely happen to the
small amount of frogs that have short legs?
O A. They will be less likely to pass on their genes.
O B. They will evolve over time to have much longer legs.
OC. They will adapt their diets to start eating plants that do not move.
O D. The other members of the frog population in the pond will provide them with food,

it is a negative acceleration

force is based upon mass and acceleration.the statement is not always true.

it can be explained from newton's second law of motion.

as per newton's second law of motion the rate of change of momentum is directly proportional to the applied force and takes place along the direction of force.

mathematically it can be written as -

                                              ⇒      

here   k is the proportionality constant whose value is 1.

                                                            [a is the acceleration=dv/dt]

hence we see that force not only depends on mass and acceleration but also on velocity and rate of change of mass. force f will depend on mass and acceleration only when mass is constant.

hence the statement that force is based upon mass and acceleration is false.
