[AI-generated answer — Explain Bot]

The correct answer is natural selection. Natural selection is a process in which certain traits or characteristics become more or less common in a population over time, based on the ability of individuals with those traits to survive and reproduce. In this case, the dark moth has a better chance of survival because it can blend in with its environment better, making it less likely to be preyed upon. As a result, the dark moth is more fit to survive, reproduce, and pass along its genes, leading to an increase in the population of dark moths over time.
