The natural selection among peppered moths of Manchester, England can be mainly attributed to to the abruptly increasing levels of Air Pollution in England as a result of thriving Industrial Revolution In the U.K.

Soot from power producing factories, etc resulted in complete eradication of lichens in the flora of the surrounding region.

The frequency of the newly evolved peppered moth increased as the dark colour was beneficial in a polluted environment like in Manchester.

ANTONII [103]
The light-dark cycle caused by the rising and setting of the sun is responsible for what are called circadian rhythms. These are biological processes that show a cycle of around 24 hours, the time between consecutive rising of the sun. Experiments have shown that without the external cue of sunlight, the circadian rhythms of organisms tend to break down. These can be reset by being re-exposed to these cues. Jet lag is due in part to a re-setting of the circadian rhythm, as you travel to a different time zone, your body has to become used to a different timing of night and day. <span>  </span>
