Humans often like to help wild animals. A marine biologist near the area where Anchor’s offspring are located has decided to feed them. He begins putting medicine in the food that keeps the pups from contracting infections common to sharks in the area. Because of this, nearly all of Anchor’s offspring survive to adulthood. Eventually, the marine biologist gets a job transfer and leaves the area. Predict what we may see in the following generation (Anchor’s grandpops). Will they still be fitter than other sharks?

Sagot :

Answer:

I would predict that the the following generation will have a large amount of pups that are eaten by the sharks.

This question seems like its asking about natural selection.

"Natural selection is the process when organisms better adapted to their environment tend to survive and produce more offspring"

Explanation:

If the marine biologist did not give the pups medicine in the first generation, the pups that were less fit or not adaptive to the enviroment to naturally survive the infections would have died. This would have prevented these pups from passing on their genes.

The next generation would consists of pups that are more immune to the sickness or more fit for their enviroment and might experiece less pups to die.
