Black squirrels may increase in a certain area due to natural selection because of the ground below it being dark so the squirrels would adapt to the terrain, making them harder to see by predators.
EXAMPLE: if a light fur colored squirrel is on a dark terrain, an Owl or Large bird could easily see the color differentiation and notice that it is a small land organism (prey).
So the squirrels kin would evolve in the sense that they would have darker fur to match their inhabitance
Answer:
The phenotypic variation for the trait is continuous
Explanation:
Genetically speaking, quantitative traits are controlled by many genes, classes are not easily distinguishable and there is a continuous distribution of the phenotype. These characteristics refer to measurements of quantities (weights, volumes, measurements: kg, m, cm, g, m2, etc.).
In other words, quantitative characteristics are those that exhibit continuous variations and are partly of non-genetic origin; that is, they are greatly affected by the environment.

A lot of rain falls there, so the possibility of acid rain and smog which can be carried by warm humid air can also form. </span>
