The answer to your question is option b

This is because if the trees are black, and covered with soot due to the pollution, caused by industrialisation, the white moths will be easily seen and constantly hunted by the predator, compared with the black moth population as they camouflage easily. Ultimately, the white moths would be hunted to such an extent that their population would dramatically decrease

Give 3 examples of how microorganisms might demonstrate the characteristics of life.
tester [92]

Answer and Explanation:

  1. Nutrition- microorganisms are able to feed on food materials obtained from the living or dead bodies of plants or other animals. They are therefore heterotrophs.
  2. Movement- both localized and generalized movements which results in the animal moving from one point to another. e.g., using flagella, cilia
  3. Excretion- they lack highly specialized excretory organs but some microorganisms use contractile vacuoles for excretion which removes waste.
