Question

question: select the correct answer from each drop-down menu. field mice are sexually-reproducing organisms. in a population of field mice, traits that promote survival and reproduction are likely to drop - down over time. traits that do not promote survival and reproduction are likely to drop - down over time.

Explanation:

This question is about natural selection in biology. For the first blank (traits promoting survival/reproduction), the concept is that such traits are likely to "increase" in frequency over time as organisms with them are more successful at reproducing. For the second blank (traits not promoting survival/reproduction), these traits are likely to "decrease" over time as organisms with them are less successful.

Answer:

First drop - down: increase
Second drop - down: decrease
