Rapid evolutionary change in physiological traits...a. Can occur as a result of nonrandom mating due to large male territories that include many females. b. Can occur when a small subset of the population invades a new habitat. c. Usually occurs in large panmictic populations that are all freely interbreeding. d. May result from the removal of a geographic barrier between 2 subpopulations (one of these is a small population and has begun to diverge due to a drier environment while the other larger population remains in a wetter environment); subsequently, there is immigration of individuals from the drier environment who interbreed with those in the population living in the wetter environment. e. Can result from an environmental disaster that causes a genetic bottleneck.

The answer is D.

Explanation:

Options A, C and E can not be the correct answer because they are not introducing a new population or a new habitat to the equation, the mating is done among the same species and the same habitat in all of these options which can not lead to rapid evolutionary change at all.

The answer is D because the two populations are inhibiting different environments and habitats and over a period of time, they have developed different traits and there is difference between their genomes, which when there is interbreeding, will result in a rapid change in physiological traits.

I hope this answer helps.

Can occur as a result of nonrandom mating due to large male territories that include many females.

Explanation:

Evolution occurs when these heritable differences become more common or rare in a population, either non-randomly through natural selection or randomly through genetic drift. ... In contrast, genetic drift produces random changes in the frequency of traits in a population.

you are the source of the heat energy. you can minimize the heat energy by selecting the appropriate clothes to wear.

if the type of the food available changes, then the frequency of beak types will change, because birds with beaks more suited to the available food will be more successful over time.
