I would say C. Why I say this is because fur is used to keep an animal warm. If the animal no longer needs to be kept warm, then it no longer needs the thick fur.

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Arctic fox is well adapted to live in colder regions. It has got its body designed  in that way only.

It has fur on body which provides thermal insulation from the colder environment. Due to rise in temperature, the arctic fox will have to adapted according to the changing conditions.

Its tail might have thinner fur, because thick fur is required to provide warmth which is no more required.

Is a dominant trait always the most common trait in a human population? (Plz explain why or why not :D)
Dimas [21]
No, what determines a dominant gene is how many copies of that gene exists  within the parent. This doesn't mean it will be the most common because of recessive genes. It doesn't matter how many copies a dominant gene has, a recessive gene can still appear in the offspring.
