Given below are some behaviors strategies.

A) Fixed action pattern, complex sequence of behavior, Once released and continuous to completion, even when there is change in surrounding environment

B)  natural selection select that territorial behavior that is benefit is greater than cost 

C) Imprinting, a form of learning in which a very young animal fixes its attention on the first object with which it has visual, auditory, or tactile experience

D) Donor benefits at a cost to the recipient, the behavior is altruistic; when the recipient benefits at a cost to the donor, the behavior is selfish.

#Section 2: Evolution

Speciation in ancestor as following way

A- Non-swimming populations separated by a river may gradually diverge because there is no gene flow between them

B- Plants commonly exhibit polyploidy, meaning they contain three or more sets of chromosomes

C- The tendency for two species to diverge in morphology and thus resource use because of competition

Which of the following above condition allowed to which type of speciation?
