Imagine you are a scientist observing rats in the wild. As the rats reproduce, rats born with white fur slowly begin to outnumber rats with black fur. In three to five sentences, provide two or more different explanations of why the rats with white fur might be outnumbering the rats with black fur.(4 points) put it in simple words

One possible explanation is that the white fur rats have a genetic advantage that helps them survive better in their environment. This advantage could be related to camouflage, making it easier for them to blend in and avoid predators. Another explanation could be that the white fur rats are more attractive to potential mates, leading to more successful reproduction and an increase in their population.
