What insect was found to have industrial melanism?

The peppered moth was found to have industrial melanism. This phenomenon occurred during the Industrial Revolution in England, where darker-colored moths were able to camouflage better against polluted, soot-covered tree trunks. As a result, the darker moths had a higher survival rate compared to lighter-colored moths.


What observations did Darwin use to develop the concept of peppered moths?

Darwin discovered Natural Selection. He said that if certain members of a species have characteristics that will allow them to survive longer, or reproduce more. Because of this, more offspring with those same traits(as the traits would be carried in the DNA, which is passed to offspring) The peppered moths in England around the industrial revolution came in two colour. Grey and white. The white ones were able to camouflage against the trees. and therefore were less likely to be seen, and therefore eaten, by predators. As such, the white ones survived, had more offspring, and became more common than the grey ones. The industrial revolution included the discovery of burning coals for energy, the ash from all this burning clung to the trees. The trees were now grey. As such, the white moths stood out, and the grey ones were camouflaged. And the roles were reversed, more grey moths survived, had more offspring, passed on the grey trait.


When England became industrialized soot from factories helped which moths survive?

Moths with lighter coloration were more visible against the darkened bark (as a result of the soot) and were thus more easily spotted by predators. Moths with darker coloration had a selective advantage as they were less visible to predators.

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.
