Answer:

A mutation in the DNA sequence of the gene for brown fur  

Explanation:

The mutations are capable of changing the encoded protein product, in this case the gene that encodes for the fur color pigment. This mutation may have occurred during mitosis or meiosis divisions.

If it is a spontaneous mutation that occurred in the germinal line (meiosis) and confers an adaptive advantage, it will increase their frequency in the population.

I think thats because small animals have small body that can hide in a safe place. Like example if small animals hide go down to the earth, and the meteorite hit the earth, they will safe down to the ground.

Not like larger animals, they can only hide up he surface and when the meteorites came, they died.

Also some small animals such as cockroaches have ability to adapt to changes.
