Question

Organisms that have a physical trait that makes it easier for them to access food supplies are unlikely to pass on that trait to their offspring.

Answer 1

False.

If a physical trait helps an organism access food, it typically increases that organism's fitness (survival and reproductive success), so individuals with the trait are more likely to leave more offspring carrying the trait. Exceptions occur if the trait is not heritable or if other factors negate the advantage.
