Natural selection relies on genetic variation. In any population of beetles, there are alleles for brown or green color. What happens to the genotype and the phenotype of the beetle population when there are distinct advantages and disadvantages due to color?

Order the steps that take place during natural selection in this beetle population.

Beetle population changes from brown and green to mostly green beetles.Birds eat brown beetles.Green beetles reproduce in greater numbers than brown beetles.More green beetles survive than brown beetles.Natural habitat is in trees. Green leaves hide green beetles.Population of beetles: equal brown and green numbers in population.The brown beetles are noticed by birds in the area.

Here is an example. There are beige beetles and brown beetles in a desert. The desert is tan, so the beige would be the ones to reproduce successfully. However, over time since the beige ones are more compatible with the environment than the brown ones, there will soon be an increase in the beige and a decrease in the brown
