Answer:

In a species a rabbits those that are further south tend to be darker.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cline is a measurable gradient change in a species characteristics caused by a geographical gradient.

When species occupy geographical areas that have slightly different environmental conditions, there will be a measurable change in their phenotype and genotype.

That is why rabbits that live further to the south will tend to darker than rabbits living in other geographical areas.
