An example of natural selection is the peppered moth found in Europe. There are two color forms of this moth, shown in the diagram. Form X was more common before the industrial revolution covered the trees with smoke and dust. Form Y is more common after the industrial revolution. Which statement explains why these two color forms exist at the same time? * Random mutations in the DNA led to different colors of individuals in the population.

The moths acquired the colors that they needed to be better camouflaged in their habitat.

The smoke and dust created by the factories coated the moths, changing their colors.

The smoke and dust created by factories randomly coated the moths and suffocated some of them.

We can plant more trees and plants.

Hunting in the darksome fish rely on senses beyond sight. in the darkness of the marianas trench, a fish called the rattail has an extremely sensitive sense of smell. the fish uses scent, rather than sight, to steer toward food. once it's near food, the rattail uses a special organ on the bottom of its chin to guide itself by feel.marine snowone staple of the deep sea diet is "marine snow," flakes of organic, edible substances that sink down from the upper ocean. animals at the ocean's bottom find sustenance in everything from the bodies of dead creatures to fecal matter. marine snow is diverse enough to support numerous species. for instance, several species of snails and worms feed exclusively on deceased whales.microorganismsthe deep sea is an intricate ecosystem, and even the ocean floor itself plays a part. hydrothermal vents are cracks in the sea floor where erupting magma mixes with ocean water to produce plumes of hot, sulfur-rich chemicals. some microbes can use these chemicals for energy, sustaining their existence and that of the animals who depend on their roles in the deep sea food chain.
