Question

. One summer, a dust storm blankets the usually green garden of the fraggles in gray for a short period
of time. Under these conditions, the green fraggles become very visible to the Gorgs, monstrous beasts
who tend the gardens and try to kill the fraggles to protect their crops. The gray fraggles, however,
blend into the dusty background and find that they can easily steal radishes from the garden. How
might this event affect microevolution in this population of fraggles, at least temporarily? Remember,
the fraggles can reproduce very quickly!

Explanation / Answer

of time. Under these conditions, the green fraggles become very visible to the Gorgs, monstrous beasts

might this event affect microevolution in this population of fraggles, at least temporarily?

Increase in gray, decrease in green, though the dust would conceivably damage the CROPS
