Explanation / Answer

Within a(n) population of fish that inhibits a yellow coral reef, some fish are orange and some fish are yellow as a result of a natural selection for body color.

A predator feeds on fish living on the reef. It is more likely to see the orange fish than the yellow fish; So, as a result, the yellow fish are more likely to survive and reproduce.

Over several generations, the ecosystem will consist of more yellow fish than orange fish, as they have adapted to their environment as a result of the inheritance of acquired characteristics.
