How did the environment affect the populations of peppered moths in the 1800s in London?

Question 1 options:

Because of the soot covering everything, the dirtier darker moths will be eaten less often, allowing them to reproduce and pass their genes on to the next generation.

Because of the soot covering everything, the lighter colored moths will be eaten less often, allowing them to reproduce and pass their genes on to the next generation.
