Do you think the black moths would have increased population if the Industrial Revolution didn't occur? Explain your reasoning.

The dark moths were now better camouflaged. As a result, dark moths had a greater chance of reproducing and passing on the alleles that made them dark. This led to a gradual increase in the proportion of dark moths until light moths became very rare in industrial areas. The moth populations in these areas had evolved.

The evolution of the peppered moth is an evolutionary instance of directional colour change in the moth population as a consequence of air pollution during the Industrial Revolution. The frequency of dark-coloured moths increased at that time, an example of industrial melanism.

in the given question, the partial pressure is calculated by using the ideal gas equation, that is, pv = nrt

here, p is pressure, v is volume = 25 l, n is number of moles = 0.0104 moles, r is gas constant = -0.0821 l.atm / mol.k

t is temperature = 273 k

p = nrt / v

p = (0.0104 mol × 0.0821 l.atm / mol.k × 273 k) / 25 l

= 0.0093 atm

c. is the answer
