Answer 1

A) heritable traits cannot be altered by experience

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because the Darwinist believe that heritable traits were acquired from previous generation not from practise or learning which may develop to experience with time.He believed that certain selective pressures must have acted or selected these organisms to possess these heritable characteristics, and can not be altered by experience whicg is acquired with age.

He should conclude therefore that variation in the organisms which possess these characteristics should be the main factor which gives them selective advantages to inherit these traits compare to others in this same surrounding environment Therefore he will discard the influence of environment.
