QUESTION 4 Natural selection can favor non-poisonous butterflies that have the same color pattern as poisonous butterflies of a different species, if the two species are subject to the same predator, a phenomenon known as Batesian mimicry. When mimics are rare, predators tend to avoid them, because they have already encountered poisonous butterflies with the same appearance. But when mimics are common, the previous encounters of some predators with butterflies of their appearance are more likely to have been rewarding; as a result, the predators will not avoid the mimics. Which of the following figures best describes the relationship between the frequency of mimic butterflies and their fitness? 0.5 0.5 0 0.5 0.5 0.5 0.5 0 0 0.5 0.5 Frequency Frequency
