The graph shows the results of a famous biological experiment. In the experiment, Kettlewell believed that the peppered moth demonstrated how environmental pressures influence evolution. He studied two areas. Birmingham was a rural wooded area; Dorset was an urban area. The moths land on tree trunks and are camouflaged against birds, their major predators. Natural genetic variations produce a light form and a dark form of the peppered moth. If Kettlewell had gone to an area comprised of equal parts urban and rural space, what would his prediction have been about the ratio of dark moths to light moths?

A) They would be found in near equal amounts.

B) All of the moths would die in the new area, and the species would go extinct.

C) The darker moths would be much higher in number than the lighter moths.

D) The lighter moths would be much higher in number than the darker moths.
