Answer:

C

Explanation:

if the phenotype increases the survival, then they are better adapted and will survive until reproductive age, when they reproduce, their genes are passed on and their offspring will have the same phenotype. this continues for many generations and the new phenotype will be common. ( this whole process is known as natural selection).

The Answer is C. Hope it helps
