One population (R) was selected for low numbers of bristles, a second population (S) for high numbers of bristles.After 35 generations (about 1 year's time), the two populations R and S were studied. Researchers found

A. a huge increase in S, a huge decrease in R, with no overlap whatsoever. B. no change was seen; it's much too soon. C. a vast, overlapping range of bristle numbers was seen. D. a slight increase in bristles in S, a slight decrease in R, with a little overlap in the middle ranges. E. some slight increase of bristle numbers was already evident.
