At the beginning of Day 1, there were one hundred of each color bean. Twenty of the dark red beans and thirty-five of the light red beans were eaten. What effect will this have on the population of the beans? Check all that apply.There will be more dark red kidney bean survivors.There will be fewer light red kidney bean survivors.There will be more light red kidney bean offspring the next morning.There will be more dark red kidney bean offspring the next morning.There will be an even number of light red and dark red kidney bean offspring produced that night.
Answer
A
There will be more dark red kidney bean survivors.
B
There will be fewer light red kidney bean survivors.
C
There will be more light red kidney bean offspring the next morning.
D
There will be more dark red kidney bean offspring the next morning.
E
There will be an even number of light red and dark red kidney bean offspring produced that night.
Explanation
After the beans are eaten, 100 − 20 = 80 dark red beans survive, while 100 − 35 = 65 light red beans survive. So there are more dark red survivors and fewer light red survivors. If the survivors produce offspring, the larger dark red group will produce more dark red offspring; the offspring numbers will not be even.
