Nevertheless, the percentage of different flower colors remains stable in the study population from year to year. Which of these statements might explain this observation?
A) Reproductive success does not affect evolution in this species.
B) Flower color is not heritable, but is instead environmentally determined.
C) The white flowers have evolved pollinator resistance.
