Question
- what color did the industrial revolution cause the moths to turn?
Brief Explanations
The question refers to the peppered moth evolution during the Industrial Revolution. Before industrialization, light-colored moths were common (camouflaged on lichen-covered trees). Industrial pollution killed lichens and darkened tree trunks, making dark-colored moths better camouflaged from predators. This led to a shift in the moth population to darker colors.
