D.) cause most hair colors to disappear
E.) change frequency in the gene pool

Answer 1

A because the most that will happen is just fade away there is nothing special.

Answer 2

Answer:

E.) change frequency in the gene pool

Explanation:

Genetic pool is the name given to the set of all unique alleles within a population in a given area that shows what the genetic frequency of that population would be in relation to the phenotypic and genotypic characteristics. In other words, the gene pool reveals the genetic makeup of a population, showing the totality of genes.

In this case, we can say that if a genetic mutation creates a new hair color within a population, the genetic makeup of that population is modified, which results in a change in frequency in the gene pool.
