<u>Answer</u>: option B they have a random gene mutation that affects their fur colour.

<u>Explanation</u> :-

  • <em>Variation</em> is the phenomena which occurs in all populations.
  • These variations result in slight differences in the phenotypes of individuals .
  • These variations only arise due to <em>random mutations </em>that arise in the individuals’ genome and then can be inherited by their offspring.
  • There is always a probability of one particular trait to make the individuals survive better in the environment as compared to other trait.
  • The individuals having the trait that helps them to survive better in the environment tend to survive more and leave more progeny. This is termed as <em>survival of the fittest</em>.
  • Thus, according to the question it can be inferred that the dark fur colour arose due to a <em>random mutation </em>since it is the only source of variation. Since, in the given environmental conditions the mice having the dark fur colour were less susceptible to the predators they are better fitted to survive.
  • The dark brown fur coat mice, survive better, leave more progeny and hence, increase their population with time. However, the orginal source of origin of this trait was a random mutation. Had this mutation not occured, the dark coloured fur mice would not have been there.

So, a <em>random gene mutation affecting the fur colour made the dark coloured mice first appear in the population.</em>

Answer:

Wild forest fires cause extensive damage to flora and fauna and result in the destruction of man-made property in and around the area of the fire. To maintain the health of the forest and prevent the large wild forest people or man]nagers use prescribe fire or controlled fired when there is no risk of loss of life and resources.

These controlled fires are used by forest officials and fire managers to prevent or keep wildfires at bay. It helps in cleared-off areas by playing the role of a barrier for fire from spreading further.

There is always the risk of flora fauna and the life of wild animals. They can get killed and lose their habitat and the smoke rose from this fire causes for environmental concern too.
