The soot discolored and generally darkened the surfaces of trees and rocks. In 1848, a dark-colored moth was first recorded. Today, in some areas, 90% or more of the-peppered moths are dark in color. More than 70 species of moth in England have undergone a change from light to dark. Similar observations have been made in other industrial nations, including the United States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"anonymous_element_26\">Instructions:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Go to the link below to read more information on peppered moths.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the end, run a simulation for each forest type (light and dark) &#8211; during this time you will play the part of a blue jay that eats moths.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After each simulation record the % of dark moths and light moths.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When finished with the simulations, return here and take the &#8220;Peppered Moths Quiz&#8221; to complete this weekly assignment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/askabiologist.asu.edu\/peppered-moths-game\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/askabiologist.asu.edu\/peppered-moths-game\/&nbsp;&nbsp;(Links to an external site.)<\/a>-Peppered Moth Activity<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/massasoit.instructure.com\/courses\/1703206\/quizzes\/3017170\">Peppered Moths<\/a> Quiz<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span class=\"has-inline-color has-pale-cyan-blue-color\">WE&#8217;VE HAD A GOOD SUCCESS RATE ON THIS ASSIGNMENT.
