A finite supply of resources can lead to natural selection in a population.
Which statement BEST explains why this happens?
A)
Members within a population with advantageous traits are more likely to
survive and create offspring.
B)
A finite supply of resources creates competition, leading to the strongest
individuals surviving and reproducing.
C)
Overpopulation occurs but cannot be supported by the environment; not
all members of a population get to reproduce.
D)
Specific traits in a population are selected for over time. Only those
members are able to reproduce and pass on their traits.

To answer this question, researchers studied populations of the dusky salamander (desmognathus ochrophaeus) living on different mountain ranges in the southern appalachian mountains. the researchers tested the reproductive isolation of pairs of salamander populations by leaving one male and one female together and later checking the females for the presence of sperm. four mating combinations were tested for each pair of populations (a and b)รขโฌโtwo within the same population (female a with male a and female b with male b) and two between populations (female a with male b and female b with male a). the proportion of successful matings for each mating combination was measured. for example, when all the matings of a particular combination were successful, the researchers gave it a value of 1; when none of the matings were successful, they gave it a value of 0. then the researchers calculated an index of reproductive isolation that ranged from 0 (no isolation) to 2 (full isolation). the reproductive isolation value for two populations is the sum of the proportion of successful matings of each type within populations (aa + bb) minus the sum of the proportion of successful matings of each type between populations (ab + ba). the table provides data for the geographic distances and reproductive isolation values for 27 pairs of dusky salamander populations.

The scales shown in the introduction measure mass, or the amount of matter in a particular object. the scientific law of conservation of mass states that matter cannot be created or destroyed during a chemical reaction, but it can change from one form to another. did the simulation support this scientific law? explain why or why not.
