In the summer, the arctic fox appears brown

because its cells produce a dark pigment.

However, in the winter, the arctic fox appears

white because the dark pigment is not produced.

The color change is most likely due to the effect of

(1) different genes produced in the different

seasons

(2) increased pollution on genetic mutations

(3) environmental conditions on gene expression

(4) poor nutrition on cell growth and development
