Respuesta :

Birds that detect UV light have favorable characteristics that enable them to survive and reproduce. These  characteristics are passed on to their offspring.

According to Darwin's theory of evolution, organisms that are better adapted to their environment live long enough to survive and reproduce and pass on these favorable traits to their offspring.

Since birds depend on these fruits for food and these fruits reflect UV light. A bird that can not detect UV light will find it difficult to obtain food. Hence, birds that have developed the ability to detect UV light will live long enough and reproduce, passing on these favorable characteristics to their offspring. Hence, birds that can detect UV light appears from birds who do not originally detect UV light.
