a yellow monkey flower
  • Yellow monkey flowers are plants that often grow near streams. These plants need small amounts of copper, a metal found in soil, to grow. But too much copper can be toxic to plants. Only yellow monkey flowers that have a trait called copper tolerance can grow in soil with high levels of copper.
The table below describes a possible population of yellow monkey flowers at the start of a period of time and at the end of that period. The table shows the copper tolerance trait in the population at each point in time.
Complete the table.
