Question

5. Imagine that some dark rock pocket mice have a mutation that causes light yellow fur on their bellies. Predict whether the percentage of mice with the yellow belly fur trait will increase, decrease, or stay the same in the population. Support your prediction using your knowledge of natural selection.

​

Answer 1

I think it would stay the same because, a mutation could always occur changing the yellow fur. Also where the location of the yellow fur is, predators can't see the belly.
