Evolution and Natural Selection
... For example, a lizard population is normally brown, but has mutations that produce red and black forms. Red lizards are more visible to predators, so they will be less likely to survive and reproduce. Therefore, the allele for red color will become rare. Black lizards may warm up faster on cold days ...
