21. Which of the following would serve as an example of concomitant structural features that might disadvantage a snail of the rarer form?
A shell and body that are an exact mirror image of a snail of the commoner form
A smaller population of the snails of the rarer form
A chip or fracture in the shell caused by an object falling on it
A pattern on the shell that better camouflages it
A smaller shell opening that restricts mobility and ingestion relative to that of a snail of the commoner form
22. The second paragraph of the passage is primarily concerned with offering possible reasons why
it is unlikely that evolutionary mechanisms could discriminate against sinistral snails
sinistrality is relatively uncommon among snail species
dextral and sinistral populations of a snail species tend to intermingle
a theory based on a developmental mechanism inadequately accounts for the predominance of dextrality across snail species
dextral snails breed more readily than sinistral snails, even within predominantly sinistral populations
23. In describing the evolutionary mechanism , the author mentions which of the following?
The favorable conditions for nurturing new offspring
