The Typica moth population would decline. The Carbonaria moth population would have a reproductive advantage in the polluted forest. The Carbonaria moth would be easily spotted by predators on the dark polluted trees. The Carbonaria moth population would decline. The recessive allele frequency would decrease each generation. The recessive allele frequency would eventually reach zero.
