Question

Actually, Sherman, there are more black moths than white ones because . . .

Answer 1

They are better adapted to the environment. Their darker color helps them blend in with the tree bark so common in their habitat. Because of that, more are likely to not get eaten by predators than white ones that are so easy to spot without camouflage abilities. The black moths are simply more fit to survive, and more of them will survive in this place.

Answer 2

Answer:

The dark moths camouflage with the dark bark of the tree so that they can stay hidden from predators and eat their food safely. The white moths do not blend in with the bark and are more likely to be found by predators.
