Based on the graph provided, write a scientific
argument to Alex Young explaining why the newt population has become so
much more poisonous in the past 50 generations.
Claim: The newt population became more poisonous because the snakes in this
environment caused poison to be an adaptive trait.
Addition: Poison Level 10 is the most common because the newts with this trait were
able to live longer and reproduce more than other newts.
(Correctly use the following words in your explanation -
adaptive trait / environment / non-adaptive trait / gene / trait / generation /
population / protein molecule / distribution / variation / natural selection)
