Figure 24.3

-In Figure 24.3,chart X above shows the frequency of the most common neutral mitochondrial DNA allele (an allele for a gene that does not affect and is not linked to coat color) across six pocket-mouse populations.Populations C,D,and E live on dark volcanic rock;populations A,B,and F live on light-colored granite.Compare this figure with chart Y above.What should you conclude after comparing these two figures?

• A)The most common neutral mitochondrial DNA allele is strongly associated with substrate color.
• B)The most common neutral mitochondrial DNA allele is strongly associated with the frequency of the Mc1r D allele.
• C)The most common neutral mitochondrial DNA allele varies more among populations than does the Mc1r D allele.
• D)Little to no correlation exists between neutral mitochondrial DNA alleles and habitat color.
