The answer is D.  In a geological era, when the plants and animals in the then environment die, they get buried in sediments. These sediments are covered by other sediments of another geological time within which are the remains of dead species of the then geological era. These sediments from different geological times have different properties hence form visible strata that can be studied to identify the kind of environment in the then geological time.   Their fossils can also be studied to identify the kind of species that roamed the earth during the time.

</span><span>Gene flow includes a transfer of alleles from one population to another. So imagine a population of plant A on location 1 and another population of plant A on location 2. They cannot interchange their genes. But if birds drop seeds from location 1 and those seeds get to location 2, gene flow may occur.</span>

AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

d. Character displacement

Explanation:

Character displacement is the phenomenon in which the similar species living in the same geographical region with similar niches differentiate in order to reduce their niche overlap and avoid competitive exculsion. Just like in this case of two- spot and three -spot avenger beetles as their timmings for hunting is different where their ranges overlap. So it's the good example of character displacement,
