Sea gulls prey on snails on the rocky sea coast. the snails vary in color from solid brown to brown and tan striped. the birds suck the soft snail bodies out of the shells and leave the shells behind on the rocks. scientists picked up 500 empty shells and found that 400 of the shells were solid brown and only 100 were striped. over the years, what would you expect to happen to the snail population?
a. the snails would become extinct.
b. there would be mostly brown snails.
c. there would be mostly striped snails.
d. there would be an even number of brown snails and striped snails.

C. There would be mostly striped snails

Explanation:

If scientists find that the sea gulls continue eating most of the brown shells, it would be expected that the pressure over this population would be higher than over the stripped shells.

What would happen then is that the brown sea shells will reduce its population and the stripped will increase in population or maintain the same (unless they have some other predator).

the framers of the constitution insisted that federal judges be nominated instead of elected due to their desire to have judges above the shifting whims of the masses.

the hope, whether achieved or not, was that federal judges would only be beholden to the law and that by not having judges be elected, they would be protected if that law dictated an outcome that ran counter to popular opinion.
