from their surroundings
Butterflies are prettier than moths. Moths are an icky brown color. XP
One way butterflies are different from moths: is that butterflies are active during the day while moths are active at night. Another one is that butterflies differ in color while moths are typically one color.

Tiger moths are a part of the family Arctiidae. These moths are bright in color and have markings similar to the tiger, which help give this insect its name.
Peppered moths are a certain species of moth that inhabited trees. when the industrial revolution came, it made a lot of the trees black. the moths had to keep themselves hidden from birds, so some of the moths turned a black/brown color. It almost looks like they have pepper on them. Most of the moths just migrated to a different location, keeping their light original color.
because they camoflauge with the pollution thus ensuring their survival and their rate of survival greater than the moths of pale color
They evolved in response to changing selection pressures (specifically predation by birds) as levels of pollution changed. The pollution reduced the effectiveness of the moths natural camouflage, resulting in the more visible moths being eaten by birds in large quantities, the less visible moths then were the only ones reproducing and their color became dominate in the population.
The best hypothesis for the experiment with peppered moths is that the color of the moths affects their survival rates based on the color of their environment. As the trees turned black due to industrial pollution, dark-colored moths became less visible to predators, leading to an increase in their population, while light-colored moths became more conspicuous and thus faced higher predation. This demonstrates natural selection in response to environmental changes.
As they are pollinated by moths this allows them to be seen.
The Industrial Revolution caused pepper moths to adapt to a darker color due to the soot and ash everywhere so that they could hide from predators better, which made the black to gray moth ratio pull towards black. After the Industrial Revolution was over however then the black peppered moths numbers started to decrease and the grayish peppered moths number began to increase. This is evidence of adaptation.The population of light-colored moths decreased and the population of dark-colored moths increased.

Typically, moths do not eat lemon. Moths mostly feed on nectar, decaying matter, and plant sap. If a moth is attracted to a lemon, it is likely due to its color or scent rather than the lemon itself being a food source.
