Help pleaseNeed to get my grade up Living things sense and respond to stimuli. They also adapt to change in their environment. Read the passage. Then, explain why the snowshoe hares' changing coat color allows the hares to respond to stimuli.
Passage:

Snowshoe hares have fur that changes color in fall and spring. This color change is caused by a genetic trait. In the fall, their fur becomes white, the color of winter snow. In the spring, their fur becomes mostly brown, matching their summertime surroundings. This change is not related to the outside temperature. Instead, it is related to change in the lengths of days and nights. The days get shorter in the fall. They get longer again in the spring. But hares don't all have the same genes. Different individuals change color at different times in fall and spring.

It is because the hair is different each spring and winter

Explanation:

When the hair gets longer it has a much more area of senses with the flowers and such but in the winter the fur goes down cause there is snow all around it

sorry i think this might be it trying to get more points

During the fall/winter, snowshoe hares are white, which helps them blend in with the snow. When the seasons change to spring and summer, snowshoe hares turn a reddish-brown. This color helps them camouflage with dirt and rocks. The hind legs are what give the hare its common name.

•there must be variation for the particular trait within a population.

•the variation must be inheritable (that is, it must be capable of being passed on from the parents to their offspring).

•individuals with one version of the trait must produce more offspring than those with a different version of the trait.good

explanation:

c is the correct answer hope this !
