the small barnacles can live only where the big ones cannot. Therefore, there is competition between the big barnacles and small ones; the competition is solely based on competing for space.

Half of the polar bears in a small population die. This population may experience changes due to .?

The drastic reduction in the polar bear population can lead to genetic bottlenecks, resulting in decreased genetic diversity which can affect their adaptability to environmental changes. Additionally, the loss of individuals may disrupt social structures and mating patterns, potentially leading to further population decline. The remaining bears may also face increased competition for resources, impacting their survival and reproductive success. Overall, these changes can threaten the long-term viability of the population.

What do variation and competition have to do with natural selection?

Variation and competition are the basis of natural selection.When a population of organisms has variety (big/small, fast/slower, etc), and there is competition, then some of those traits will assist in winning the competition, and some will not, which will tend to mean the difference between an organism surviving versus not surviving, which in a large population will mean passing the genes for those advantageous traits on, which then means that those traits have been 'selected' for by the natural act of competition, thus 'natural selection'.
