In this example of evolutionary development, we can see a selective advantage.
Developing of new characteristics, in this case, the spots on moth's wings is a part of the process of adaptation of organisms to their environment.
The new characteristics are acquired through mutations and natural selection filters the ones that are the most beneficial for the holder.
For example, a mutation which results in moths having shorter wings is disadvantageous, because it makes the individual who possesses it less likely to survive and reproduce.
On the other hand, developing of spots that resemble eyes can be advantageous, since it enables the holder of the trait to be more successful and more likely to leave offspring.
<span>The general sense found in the skin are:
a. Tactile - simply called the sense of "touch"
b. Pressure - a heavy touch (receptors for both tactile and pressure are called mechanoreceptors)
c. Temperature - the skin determines whether the environment is hot or cold (Thermoreceptors)
d. Pain - when the tissue is damaged
e. Vibration </span>
There would be 40 units of energy left, because 10% is lost each time.
