Answer:

B C D

Step-by-step explanation:

V- Anteaters having shorter/longer tongue's in an example of variation simply because this factor is random.

V- Whales with one offspring are also an example of variation-- the whale did not control how many offspring they had.

X-whales stay in groups naturally, it is something they learned over time to stay safe, it's not genetic variation, more of adaption

the difference between variation and adaption is

adaption helps suit the environment

and

variation comes from mutations and is often random
