A species of moth lived in a forest with a mixture of dark- and light-colored trees. The coloring of these moths is inherited. The dark moths were hidden from predators on the dark trees, and the light moths were hidden on the light trees. When the light-colored trees were killed by a disease, the forest was suddenly made up almost entirely of dark trees. Generations later, almost all the moths had the dark coloring. Which of the following gives a correct explanation?

The light moths that survived did not mate and have offspring because they thought that their offspring would easily be seen and eaten by predators.

The light moths that survived had dark offspring because the change in the environment caused the parents to decide to have offspring that would do better in the changed environment.

The light moths saw that the dark moths were less likely to be eaten by predators, so they made themselves dark as well.

The dark moths were better hidden from predators, so more of them survived. Because dark parents outnumbered light parents, there were many more dark offspring than light offspring in the next generation.

Explanation:

the earth is thought to have been formed about 4.6 billion years ago by collisions from a cloud of hydrogen, helium, rock, ice and other materials. these were pulled together by gravity to form objects in and around earth like- asteroids and small early planets called planetesimals.

so, the best possible answer to this question will be option d- to harden materials to form different parts of earth’s layers
