16. There are bwo coot color varlations of a specles of rock pocket mice In the desert southwest In North Amerlca. One color varlant is brown, and the other Is black. The rock pocket mice live In habltats with tan, sandy soll that are Interrupted by ancient lava flows that resulted In dark rocks. Select all that apply. Predators will not differentiate between the two color variants because mice hide well beneath plants and rocks. O Light and dark colored mice will survive and reproduce at equal rates in the sandy habitats. Dark-colored mice will survive and reproduce at higher rates on the ancient lava flows. Light-colored mice on dark rocks are likely to be predated. Natural selection will favor brown mice on tan soil and black mice on the ancient lava flows.
