The population of black moths, specifically the peppered moth, decreased in the 1850s primarily due to industrial pollution in England. As factories released soot and other pollutants, the trees where these moths rested became darker, favoring lighter-colored moths that were better camouflaged against predators. This environmental shift led to a decline in the black moths, highlighting the role of natural selection in response to changing habitats.

What best summarizes the peppered moths in England after the Industrial Revolution?
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.
Peppered moths use the adaptation of camouflage as protection from predators They may have a variety of colors or shades but before the Industrial Revolution they were typically white with black?
The population of light-colored moths decreased and the population of dark-colored moths increased.
An experiment is performed with peppered moths. The table below shows the populations of light-colored moths and dark-colored moths before and after the trees turned black.?

An experiment is performed with peppered moths. The table below shows the populations before and after the trees turned black. Based on this data which is a reasonable hypothesis for what happened aft?
The peppered moths with light-colored wings decreased in population after the trees turned black, while the peppered moths with dark-colored wings increased in population. A reasonable hypothesis is that the moths with dark-colored wings had a survival advantage in the new environment as they were better camouflaged against the black trees, while the light-colored moths became more visible to predators.

Oh, dude, it's like those peppered moths were just chilling on their trees, right? Then, bam! Trees go black, and suddenly the dark moths are like, "Yo, this is our time to shine!" So, they start dominating the scene, and the light moths are like, "Well, I guess we'll just blend into the background now." It's survival of the fittest, man.

What was the cause of increase in the numbers of black moths in England in the 1800s?
more smog from factories meant that moths had to adapt to blend in, so there started to be far more black moths than white
In a certain population of moths most of the moths are white but some are dark. When pollution changed the color of the tree trunks in the area the population of the moths changed. More of the moths w?
When the tree trunks darkened due to pollution, the dark-colored moths had a survival advantage because they were better camouflaged against the trees, making them less visible to predators. As a result, the population of dark moths increased over time, while the white moths became more vulnerable and their numbers declined. This phenomenon is an example of natural selection, where environmental changes influence which traits are favored in a population.
