Within a Population of Mice There Is an Allele for a Gene

Essay

Within a population of mice there is an allele for a gene that leads to the production of larger front teeth.In areas where seeds have thicker coatings,larger teeth allow these mice to chew through thicker seed coatings and survive at a higher rate than mice with smaller teeth.Would you expect an increase in the percentage of mice with larger teeth in a population of mice living in an area with seeds that have thicker coatings? Explain your reasoning.
