PL HELP I CANT GET THIS WRONG PLSSS A genetic mutation causes a newt to have faster reflexes. After many generations, most of the newt population has the reflex mutation. Which of the following most likely caused this change?

A. The mutation was contagious.

B. Other newts learned to copy the strategies of the mutated newt.

C. Newts with the mutation are better able to survive and reproduce than newts without the mutation.

D. The newt passed on its mutated gene to other adult newts.

C. Newts with the mutation are better able to survive and reproduce than newts without the mutation.

Explanation:

Faster reflexes is an advantageous traits because the organisms can react better to any dangers, which helps them live and survive. Since the trait was passed down from many different generations, that means that it happened slowly, meaning the genes had to spread through reproduction; only the ones that survive reproduce. So there were more survivors with the mutation slowly increasing the population that had the mutation.
