The answer is <span>insect and pest populations decreased.

DDT (dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane) was used as an insecticide which is a substance used to kill insects. That resulted in decrease in insect and pest populations. It is a persistent and non-degradable insecticide, but as well organic pollutant readily accumulated to soils and consequently affects organisms.
Hello! :)
It would take forever listing all the animals that have adaptations that helps them survive in their environment.
Natural selection is the process by which individuals with characteristics that are advantageous for reproduction in a specific environment leave more offspring in the next generation, thereby increasing the proportion of their genes in the population gene pool over time.
Hope this helped and I hope I answered in time!
Good luck!

Answer:
The answer is no, high biological fitness in one environment doesn't have to be high in another environment. Biological fitness is a term used in evolutionary biology and it is the quantitative representation of how a genotype (or phenotype) is successful (reproductively) in a certain environment. The biological fitness of an organism is dependent on its ability to survive and reproduce in a given environment. If different traits or alleles increase the fitness of an organism, those alleles will consequently increase in the gene pool, and that trait will increase in the population.
