NSTRUCTIONS
You are bird hunting moths (both dark and light) that live on trees. As you capture the moths most easily visible against the tree surface, the moth populations change, illustrating the effects of natural selection.
In this Lab, you will:
Predict the color of moth that will survive better on various colors of tree trunks.
Understand how camouflage can promote survival.
Explain the process of natural selection.
