Scientists collected samples of each group of flies. They placed some of the flies, together, in flasks with both apples and hawthorn

fruit. Other flasks contained either apple-eating flies or hawthorne-eating flies. Only the flies in the single fruit flasks mated and
produced offspring. To confirm their results, the scientists isolated flies from each group and put one of each into a flask with food.
Eventually the flies died
without mating. What conclusions apply to this situation? All BUT ONE could apply.
A)One fly species became two species via natural selection.
B)By eating different fruits, the flies changed genetically.
C)Over time, each group evolved different traits that aided in their survival.
D)Living in the ground and emerging a different times was a kind of
geographic isolation
