The coloration of the beetles most likely remains constant, despite differential predation, when it is strictly due to ENVIRONMENTAL factors. Phenotypic traits can be influenced by genes or the environment.
The expression of a given characteristic (i.e., a phenotypic trait) in an individual may be associated with genetic and environmental factors, as well as with the interaction between genetic and environmental factors.
Different types of environmental inputs (e.g., diet, temperature range, oxygen, humidity, light, etc) can influence a given phenotype.
A heritability value near zero (0) indicates that almost all of the phenotypic variability for a given trait is caused by environmental factors.
