About this document
Dark Moths Thrive in Pollution by Fagnner Ywerton is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document discusses the impact of the Industrial Revolution on the populations of light and dark-colored peppered moths in England. Initially, light-colored moths thrived due to better camouflage against light tree bark, but pollution darkened the trees, allowing dark moths to survive and reproduce more effectively. As pollution levels decreased later, the light-colored moths regained their advantage, illustrating the concept of natural selection based on environmental changes.
