An example is the drop of white-colored moths and an increase in dark-colored moths in London after  the industrial revolution. Because darker-colored moths could camouflage well in the sooty environment (due to industrial emissions), they were preyed less by their predators. White-colored moths stood out and due to being preyed more their numbers declined over generations – because they wouldn’t survive long enough to reproduce and pass their genes to the next generation. The predominant color for the moths’ population became dark color.

Explanation:

Carrying capacity of a biological population in an ecosystem is the maximum number of population size the environment or habitat can conveniently cater for given the available resources such as, food, water supply, space etc.

The survival of the jelly fish largely in the small body of water would be largely dependent on how much food that is available.

The large number of mollusks harvested would reduce the available food in the small body of water, hence, reducing the carrying capacity for jellyfish.
