Study the table above. A frog population was introduced to a new habitat. Two phenotypes for color of this particular species of frog exist: brown and green. What conclusion can be drawn about the frog's proportions as new generations are produced? Also, what type of environment is the frog's new habitat?
A) The green frogs are more tolerant of the weather in this new habitat; forest
B) The brown frogs numbers are dwindling because the green frogs are better suited for mating; desert
C) The alleles for brown color are most likely recessive and therefore do not pass down to generations as easily; desert
D) The alleles for green color outnumber brown because these frogs are better suited for survival in this habitat; forest
