A. Increase in the frequency of dark-colored mutants in polluted areas, became known as industrial melanism

B. Numerous insect pests become resistant to insecticides and numerous bacteria become resistant to antibiotics.

C. A plant that is too short may not be able to compete with other plants for sunlight. However, extremely tall plants may be more susceptible to wind damage
