Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The process described is an example of coevolution, where two interacting species (in this case, flowers and pollinators) evolve together in a way that benefits both. Over time, flowers have evolved to have brighter colors, sweeter nectar, and fragrances that attract pollinators, while pollinators have become adapted to these specific traits and help the flowers reproduce. This coevolutionary process has led to the diversity of flower and pollinator species that we see today. Nutrient cycling and narrowing niche breadth are not relevant to this process, and while artificial selection can also lead to changes in traits, it does not involve the interaction between two species as in coevolution.
