how humans influence organisms via artificial selection
how the industrial revolution improved the lives of workers
how natural selection changed the population of peppered moths

Explanation:

For the first question, the classic example of peppered moths shows that darker - colored moths became more prevalent due to better camouflage (from pollution darkening trees) which relates to survival. For the second question, the text likely focuses on the natural selection (due to environmental change like pollution) affecting peppered moth populations.

Answer:

1. Darker coloring is currently better for the peppered moth’s survival.
