Question

1. what happens to traits that increase an organisms fitness? * 1 point they become less common they are eliminated they are more likely to be passed on to future generations they have no effect on survival

Explanation:

In the context of natural selection (a key concept in Biology, which is a subfield of Natural Science), traits that increase an organism's fitness (its ability to survive and reproduce) are more likely to be passed on to future generations. Organisms with these beneficial traits are more successful at reproducing, so the traits become more common over time, not less common or eliminated, and they do affect survival.

Answer:

C. They are more likely to be passed on to future generations (assuming the options are labeled A, B, C, D with C being the correct one as per the content; the original options are: 1. They become less common 2. They are eliminated 3. They are more likely to be passed on to future generations 4. They have no effect on survival, so the correct option is the third one, e.g., if options are A to D as A. They become less common, B. They are eliminated, C. They are more likely to be passed on to future generations, D. They have no effect on survival, then the answer is C. They are more likely to be passed on to future generations)
