Recently the scientist has noticed lizards that are born white instead of the normal brown color. He does genetic testing on both types of lizards and determines that the brown coloring should be the only color option for that type of lizard. Select the best explanation for the albino lizards. A Brown color is recessive to white. B The DNA mutated to change the color brown to white. © Someone painted the lizards white.
