Can you please help me answer just a couple questions

Question

A species of flowering plant produces vibrant blue flowers. The flowers attract both pollinators that spread the plant's pollen and herbivores that feed on the plant. An adaptation occurred through several generations of plant species, and the plant is now known for its long, sharp thorns. Why might this adaptation have occurred?
to absorb more water and nutrients
to attract more pollinators
to discourage herbivores
to provide shade for the plant
A population of snails on an island is disrupt during a violent storm. Portions of the population are carried by the storm surge to two new islands, while a portion remains on the original island, creating three separate populations. Conditions on one of the new islands are exactly like conditions on the original island. However, snails that landed on the second new island encounter a varacious new predator. What is likely to happen to these three populations?
Speciation will occur at the same rate in all three snail populations
Speciation will occur at the same rate in the snails that landed on new islands but not in the original snail population.
Speciation will rapidly occur in one of the snail populations that landed on new islands but not in the other two snail populations
Speciation will occur in the original snail population but will not occur in the populations that landed on new islands
