Which is an example of the bottleneck effect? Green beetles move to a new location and build a new colony there. Green beetles survive as birds don't see them, whereas brown beetles get detected. Insecticide spraying eliminates all but a few of the beetles on an island.

a bottleneck is very narrow, which means that only a portion of the contents of the bottle cat get out (at the time).

From this effect, people use the word bottleneck when only a few individuals of a population survive:

the answer is: Insecticide spraying eliminates all but a few of the beetles on an island.
