One of the effects of climate change is the warming of ocean and air temperatures. The sex of sea turtle offspring is determined by temperature during development. Temperature over 87° Fahrenheit will result in female offspring. In 2-5 sentences, describe what change you'd expect to see in the distribution of traits, if any, and whether it would be caused by a genetic adaptation, a mutation, or the environment.

plz help i don't have long

Mutations represent the raw material for evolution. Mutations in genes whose interaction with the environment defines sex during development could enable the adaptation of turtles to global warming conditions.

Complex traits, also known as quantitative traits, are phenotypic characteristics that result from variation within many genes and their interaction with environmental factors (e.g., temperature).
In this case, it is expected that the sex of turtles is determined by the effect of quantitative genes that interact with environmental factors (i.e., temperature).
Mutation in these quantitative genes might lead to the development of turtles where a suitable proportion of males and females in the next generation is determined by higher temperatures.
Eventually, beneficial mutations can be favored by natural selection, i.e., mutations are selected by exposure to specific environmental conditions (in this case, global warming conditions), thereby increasing their frequency in the next generations.

all are right except the first one. the first one is

c. An introduced species is not necessarily harmful to the environment; an invasive species has a negative effect.

here gj

thank uu

I got 100%

A.
An introduced species is brought in on purpose; an invasive species is brought in by accident.

D.
the number of species in a community

B.
If the location used to be too cold for non-native species, it is now warm enough to allow them to exist.

A.
It reduces biodiversity by reducing successful mating in native species.

D
Large because it has led to several significant changes, including new invasive species and loss of natives.

Best regards :)

Based on the given information, an increase in ocean and air temperatures due to climate change would likely result in a shift towards a higher proportion of female sea turtle offspring. This change in the distribution of traits would be caused by the environment, specifically the temperature during development, rather than a genetic adaptation or mutation. Warmer temperatures would lead to a higher likelihood of female offspring being produced.
