darker fur color. The two fur colors are shown in the images here. The area where these mice live typically have a sand with a tan
background. However, there are areas of cooled lava from a volcanic eruption 10,000 years ago that deposited black rock. The mice
are found on the sand and on the rocks.
Researchers set traps to collect samples of mice from the rocks and the sand areas. An analysis of the data for the mice caught in
each of the areas would show which trend if natural selection were acting on the different phenotypes?

Bony fish have body coverings of scales, while cartilaginous fish are covered with dendritical projections (think shark skin).

Option D is correct because genes can be described as the hereditary molecules that determine the characteristics of a person.

Option B is false because genes do not occur as the same number of chromosomes. Rather, there are many genes present on a single chromosome.

Option C is false because all genes are not located in a specific location. Each gene has its specific location on the chromosome which is known as its locus.

Option E is false because genes are not units of RNA. Genes are made up of DNA.
