Mice are shown on the habitat they are not nomally found on. The color of the Sand Hills Is shown below the light-colored mouse (normal habltat), while the color of the ground in the rest of the State is shown below the dark-colored mouse. Figure B shows the phenotyplc difference in the hair shaft of the wild-type and the light-colored (wideband) mice.

Individuals compete with each other for food, water and mates, and to avoid predators.

(b) Explain why it makes sense that natural selection can maintain linkage disequilibrium between two loci that are not physically linked when there is epistasis for fitness.
