Answer is c) a population of salmon with different skin colors that attract mates

The organisms which have the most attractive quality like bright colour of skin or feathers mate the most often and produce offspring with the same traits. the population of salmon with different skin colors that attract mates because the skin colors that attract mates will be selected and will produce more offspring.
