The correct response is:
**The positive effects outweigh the negative effects in certain environments.**
Natural selection can favor traits that provide advantages in specific environments, even if those traits also have negative consequences. If the benefits, such as increased oxygen intake, enhance survival and reproductive success in a challenging environment, they can lead to the adaptation becoming more prevalent despite the associated risks.
