Tiger Moths produce high pitched ultrasonic clicking when they hear the echolocation calls of bats and we know that bats eat moths. As a result, the bat's sonar is jammed and the Tiger Moth escapes without being caught, killed, and eaten. Please use your knowledge of Evolution by Natural Selection to explain the process by which this remarkable anti-predator defense evolved in Tiger Moths.

• describe the characteristics of these animals and create a dichotomous key for these animals.

The crabs use their claws and jaws to crack open the shells of the sea snails, and so, by the principle of natural selection, any snail with a thicker shell would have an advantage and thicker shells would become more abundant. This in turn would create a selective pressure for stronger claws and jaws in the crabs, which in turn would give a selective advantage to snails with even thicker shells.
