Question

Based on Darwin’s ideas of descent with modification and natural selection, which observation would best support the idea that increased competition causes changes in a species?(1 point) Responses A population of artic foxes develop a brown fur color as warmer temperatures reduce the number of days of snowfall in the area A population of artic foxes develop a brown fur color as warmer temperatures reduce the number of days of snowfall in the area A population of deer show an increase in antler size over time, which allows them to obtain more mates during mating season A population of deer show an increase in antler size over time, which allows them to obtain more mates during mating season A population of frogs develop greener skin after a hurricane blows away the white flowers in the environment A population of frogs develop greener skin after a hurricane blows away the white flowers in the environment A population of rattlesnake goes extinct as the water resources in their environment dry up during an extreme, prolonged drought

A population of deer showing an increase in antler size over time, which allows them to obtain more mates during mating season would best support the idea that increased competition causes changes in a species. This is because the larger antlers would give the deer a competitive advantage in attracting mates, leading to individuals with larger antlers being more likely to pass on their genes and have offspring with similar traits. This demonstrates how competition can drive the evolution of a species.
