Question

Using darwins observations, explain how zebras got their stripes

Answer 1

I believe it has something to deal with helping the zebras adapt to their surroundings.

Darwins observations explain that zebras have stripes to adapt to their surroundings.

Answer 2

They evolved over time and natural selection, in which heritable traits that help organisms survive and reproduce become more common in a population over time. So the parents may have evolved to have stripes by having the certain gene for it, and then it was passed down to all the others.
