Answer:

Please see below

Step-by-step explanation:

Adapting to the surrounding environment is a critical part of surviving and, eventually, evolution. Take mice as an instance. Their coat color plays a major role in allowing to go undetected from potential predators if they are able to blend in well with the surrounding environment. Mice with a coat color that makes them stand out will be easily preyed on. Hence, those who have adapted to their environmental conditions will live to pass on their genes. This phenomenon is known as selection pressure.
