What is one reason that strawberries are surviving in the winter season?
A
they have larger leaves
B
they have genetic variations allowing them to be resistant to cold
C
they reproduce more
D
the color is dark
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -They have different genetic variations that cause them to be more resistant to cold temperatures. They are able to reproduce more quickly than the other strawberries. The color of the strawberries is darker, and they maintain their temperature better than other strawberries.

Detailed explanation-2: -Genetic variations that alter gene activity or protein function can introduce different traits in an organism. If a trait is advantageous and helps the individual survive and reproduce, the genetic variation is more likely to be passed to the next generation (a process known as natural selection).

Detailed explanation-3: -Genetic variation can be caused by mutation (which can create entirely new alleles in a population), random mating, random fertilization, and recombination between homologous chromosomes during meiosis (which reshuffles alleles within an organism’s offspring).

Detailed explanation-4: -Evolutionary adaptation, or simply adaptation, is the adjustment of organisms to their environment in order to improve their chances at survival in that environment.

Detailed explanation-5: -Each beak shape is an adaptation to a specific source of food. Each beak shape is designed to construct a different type of nest. Each beak shape helps protect the birds from a different predator.
