what will most likely happen to the beetle population over time, if they live in an ecosystem with many green, leafy trees?

question 5 options:

the green beetles will be naturally selected over the brown beetles.

the beetle population will evolve over time until most of the beetles are green.

there will be an increase in the number of green beetles and a decrease in the number of brown beetles.

all of the above

Match each law or principle to its description. 1. law of original horizontality sediment continues to spread in a flat plane until it hits an edge or runs out of material. 2. law of superposition the youngest strata are at the top and the oldest are at the bottom. 3. law of original lateral continuity sediment gets pulled down by gravity in a horizontal and flat layer. 4. law of cross-cutting or intrusive relationships if there is a fracture or intrusive feature seen in rock strata, it is younger than the rock strata.
