There are multiple color phenotypes in a hypothetical population of beetles living in a New England forest, matching the various colors of the bark of the trees on which they live and hide from predators.
The diagrams below show four possible changes to the population of beetles after air pollution from a coal-burning power plant darkens the bark of the trees in the forest.
Which of the following diagrams represents the most probable change in the coloration of the beetle population in response to the effects of the air pollution?
