The graph shown here is from a natural selection lab in which students "hunt" for candy in different simulated environments.  Examine the graph and answer the questions below it. Approximately how many of each candy species were present in generation 1 (round to the nearest 10)?   Which candy species was the least able to hide from the predators in Generation 3? Which candy species had the best survival rate throughout the first four generations of the simulation? Does this data support the hypothesis that Snikers were the most fit for the simulated environment? Please answer yes or no
