Natural Selection
What was demonstrated in the darkening of the population of the peppered moth in Europe over a relatively short period of time?
The darkening of the population of the peppered moth in Europe over a relatively short time demonstrated natural selection in action. The change in moth coloration was a response to industrial pollution, where darker moths had a survival advantage in a polluted environment as they were better camouflaged from predators. This phenomenon provided a clear example of adaptation and evolution in response to changing environmental conditions.
Which variety of peppered moths increased over the 10 year period?
The dark colored moths increase over ten- year period.

What did kettlewell show with regard to peppered moth populations and tree coloring?
Kettlewell showed through his research the effects of the industrial revolution had upon natural selection and evolution. He demonstrated that the peppered moth in industrialised areas were darker than their counterparts in rural locations. This is predominantly due to the soot from factories and the steam powered mechanical equipment at that time darkening the trees upon which they settled, thus the lighter coloured moths were eaten by their predators and the black survived. The opposite was true in rural locations. As such is recorded as an early citing of "man's" influence over the environment and demonstrated Darwins theory of natural selection in evolutionary terms.
When was Peppered with Smut created?
Peppered with Smut was created in 1999.
How does a white moth illustrate natural selection?
The colour of the peppered moth is often used as an example of natural selection. During the Industrial Revolution, the surfaces on which peppered moths frequently settle became increasingly stained with soot from the chimneys of factories, darkening them. Lighter-coloured moths would more easily be seen on these darkened surfaces by predators, and so the chances of survival were less for lighter moths than for darker moths; having a darker colour bestowed a reproductive advantage. As a result, the average colour for the population as a whole became darker.
