[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

Due to natural selection, the fish with brown scales are more likely to survive and reproduce compared to those with silver scales. Over time, the frequency of brown scales in the fish population may increase as those individuals have a higher chance of passing on their advantageous trait to their offspring. This is an example of natural selection favoring the evolution of traits that provide a survival advantage in a specific environment.
