Question

WRITE ABOUT A THEME: INTERACTIONS In Batesian
mimicry, a palatable species gains protection by mimicking
an unpalatable one. Imagine that individuals of a palatable,
brightly colored fly species are blown to three remote islands.
The first island has no predators of that species; the second has
predators but no similarly colored, unpalatable species; and the
third has both predators and a similarly colored, unpalatable
species. In a short essay (100–150 words), predict what might
happen to the coloration of the palatable species on each island
through time if coloration is a genetically controlled trait.
Explain your predictions
