It would negatively affect survival. The brown wallaby can camouflage itself more easily in its environment than the white wallaby. The white wallaby would easily seen by predators.
When changes happen in an environment. Many things can and will happen. If there was a gene mutation for the color of beetles, then that would affect their survival because the old color could have helped them hide and be camouflage. (however you spell it) If that is changed it could make them more out in the open, so predators could get them easier. Which would result in less beetles and more predators. Some examples are like the white wallaby, because of its environment it changes color to blend in and survive.
It will address the research question of what type of goose (species) does the Nene evolved from.
Explanation:
Genomics uses the whole set of an organisms DNA to study and understand its' function, structure, and evolution. Scientists will use the Nene's genome set to study its evolution,basically telling a story where it comes from.
