In the example of the crickets studies in class for natural selection, crickets lost their song. Why?
Because they were terrible singers
Because of the loss of a phenotype
Because of predators that parasitized them based on song
Because of mate selection
In the example studied about zebra finches with regard to individual learning, the ones that choose freely had lower numbers of offspring showing a decrease in fitness.
