I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option C. Over a period of years, most likely, individuals that are well suited to the environment reproduce, and those that have lesser adaptations die before they reproduce. Hope this answers the question.

C.Individuals that are well suited to the environment reproduce, and those that have lesser adaptations die before they reproduce.

Explanation:

The theory of natural selection suggests that the organisms, that are better fit for the survival must exhibit beneficial traits over the others. This supports their survival and reproduction. These traits facilitates the survival of the organism in adverse conditions.

As it is mentioned that more wildbeests are born than the environment can actually support. To survive in the environment where their exists resource scarcity the organisms that adapt according to the condition will survive and reproduce and the less adapted and inferior organisms will not survive even during their pre-natal development.

Atp is is our little "pocket" of energy. of course, if you have too little, then it means you have too little energy, and you'll pass out. the way to not have enough, is to have no energy sources (glucose, fats, proteins). you can't have too many atp molecules. cycles like the krebs cycle produce it, but if you have too much of any substrate (or too little for that matter), the cycle stops and atp is no longer made (it stops until substrate levels are such that the process can go on). in any case, this is unlikely since atp is constantly hydrolyzed and remade, even while you're asleep. you won't have too much. if you have zero, you are dead or dying.
