The peppered moth population in a locality has light and dark moth varieties. The tree barks in the locality are covered with li
ght-colored lichens. How would the population of the two moth varieties change over time? (3 points) Dark moth population increases as they are preyed upon less frequently
Light moth population increases as they are preyed upon less frequently
Dark moth population decreases as they blend in with their surroundings
Light moth population decreases as they blend in with their surroundings
The population of the moth is mixed with light colored and dark colored moth but the population of light colored moth is more as compared to that of the dark colored moth.
The light colored moth get mixed in the population of the lichen as they are also of light colored.
The population of the light colored moth will increase as they will be preyed less because of the color that matches to its surrounding.
