mice and cats
Storyboard Text
- Population of brown mice that blends in with their environment, allowing them to escape the predator. One mouse was born with a genetic mutation, that mouse does not blend in with the environment.
- Over time, the population grew and the mouse with the mutation had children. But still, none of the descendant offsprings were able to blend in with the brown floors of their habitat.
- One day, the cat(predator) came into the room, the mice with the phenotype of brown fur managed to escape, but a few of the mutated mice fell prey to the cat.
- The cat kept coming back and natural selection was showing who it favored, as the brown mice managed to escape with their life more of the mutated mice kept on falling victims to the cat.
- Over time the cat kept eating all of the mutated mice, and the genetic variation of the population was disappearing leaving only the mice that were truly adapted to their habitat.
- With a population only consisting of brown mice that blended in with their habitat, the predator could no longer see them leaving the mice alive and able to reproduce.
