A) Variation

B) Overproduction

C) Survival of fit individuals

D) None of the above

Answer 1

the answer is A

Step-by-step explanation:

because the shorter ones have less of a chance to live and the longer ones have more of a chance to live

Answer 2

The correct answer is A. Variation.

The key word in the text is "different." There is a variety of horn sizes among horned animals.

Eliminated Answer Choices:
The answer cannot be B. Overproduction because the text does not give any information about reproducing or populations.
The answer cannot be C. Survival of fit individuals because survival of the fit is related to adaptations and the text does not mention anything about that.

Hope this helps. Good luck! :)
