Jean-Baptiste Lamarck was one of the first scientists to propose a method for evolutionary change. He suggested that an organism's body would adapt to its surrounding based upon the use or disuse of certain body parts. Why was this a mistaken idea? Answer choices:
-As species become distinctly different from each other, so do their body forms, which is a result of their genes changing.
-Evolutionary change can only act upon traits that are inheritable, not traits that are acquired through an organism's lifetime.
-When an organism migrates to a new environment or the environment it currently lives in changes, the organism must adapt, or it will not survive.
-Individuals adapt and change, not populations.
