A population of mice, some with light-colored fur and some with dark-colored fur are introduced into a field with dark soil. A few generations later, the majority of the mice have dark-colored fur. Which of the following best explains this change? * Light-colored mice can run faster.
Dark-colored mice have fewer offspring.
Light-colored mice have changed color over generations.
Dark-colored mice are better able to hide from their predators.

Dark-colored mice are better able to hide from predators.

Explanation:

If all of the light mice are eaten, then there are none left to pass on the light-furred gene, meaning that there would be no offspring without dark fur.

answer: c. the experiment shows that the red substance experienced a chemical change.

explanation: chemical change is the change in which chemical composition of the substance changes. physical change is the change in which there is no change in chemical composition.

chemical changes are accompanied by following changes:

a) precipitate formation

b) energy is released or absorbed

c) formation of bubbles

d) change in color

as it is given that the red color has disappeared and there is production of gas, it means the red substance has undergone a chemical change.
