It has been found that many insect pest populations have become more resistant to pesticides over time. How might this have occurred? O The individual insects who were naturally resistant to the pesticide were able to reproduce and pass on their genes. This created future generations of insects that were more naturally resistant to the pesticides. O Individual insects decided they did not like the pesticides and went to the doctors O The chemical pesticides given to insects have mutated due to climate shifts and no longer work. O The pesticide killed off the insects and new ones moved into the region, who have not been exposed to the pesticide yet.

Evolutionary adaptations

Evolutionary adaptation is the process through which organisms adapt or adjust to their surroundings to increase the chances of survival, mating, and reproduction. An organism's behavior, physiology, and structure are adjusted or changed to make it more suited to its environment.
