The reason for the loss of color after the industrial revolution is that the light-colored moths were "selected against" by predators. These birds could only see the light ones against the newly dark, sooted background. Over time, these predators could no longer distinguish the dark ones from their natural dark, sooted background. Thus more light-colored moths stood out against the dark soot, and were eaten. And more dark-colored moths eluded the birds, survived to reproduce, passing on more of their dominant genes for dark color to their offspring. After several decades of hundreds of thousands of generations, most of the later generations were dark, due to selective advantage of camouflage to survive predation.

What is an important characteristic of the plant cell wall?
salantis [7]


The best answer is b - it is rigid.

The cell wall is defined as the rigid, outermost layer found in plants and also certain bacteria, algae and fungi. It is absent in animal cells.

The plant cell wall is made up  cellulose which is a structural carbohydrate. The cell wall is rigid and thus offers structural support allowing plant such as trees to grow to great heights.

It also helps prevent water loss, helps protect against insects and pathogens and keeps the shape of the plant.
