The black panther phenotype in jaguars, which is a completely black coat, is thought to be determined by a single gene. If the presence of this phenotype were unrelated to habitat type, but was found to be much more common in populations in Costa Rica relative to populations in Brazil, what would be the most likely explanation for this geographic pattern

Respuesta :

Answer:

Due to suitable climate and food availability.

Explanation:

The reason for this geographical distribution is the availability of suitable climate and food. Black panthers live in the hot, dense tropical rainforests environment where there is a lot of food present that is necessary for sustaining the population of black panthers. Black panthers are more common in Costa Rica as compared to populations in Brazil due to climate as well as food availability.
