Q3.7. Do you think the distribution of shell thickness in the population will change over time as your new crab with no shell-thickness preference starts having meals? Why or why not? Yes, the population could evolve by chance. The change might be toward thinner shells or thicker shells.

O Yes, the snails want protection against this new crab, so the population will evolve toward thicker shells. No, the population will not evolve, because all individuals are equally likely to survive.
