Answer:

Tan fur helps the mice protect themselves from predators

Explanation:

The entrenchment of this phenotype in the population is powered by natural selection pressures. The mice with fur color that enable them to camouflage with their environment are predated less than mice with other fur colors. These tan mice are therefore more likely to survive and pass their genes to the next generation. Through successive generations, the allelic frequency for the tan fur color increases until it is the dominant allele in the population.

Explain why sickle cell anaemia is a form of discontinuous variation
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

Sickle Cell Anaemia can be considered a form of discontinuous variation because the variation falls within definite groups. You either have sickle cell malaria (HsHs) or you do not (HaHa). There is nothing in between and so one cannot draw a continuum (continuous scale) for Sickle cell Anaemia.
