Answer:

Charles Darwin´s Origin of Species

Explanation:

The way the peppered moth changed (or evolutionised) is in line with

Darwin´s origen of species theory. As its camouflage is vital for surviving, the peppered moth species turned out to be darker when the trees were blackened by soot and lighter after the Clean Air Act in 1959. This made them more difficult to be spotted by the birds and guaranteed them the survival of the best adapted (camouflaged) species.

Realist Henrik Ibsen implemented _____ in Hedda Gabler. Select all that apply.
jarptica [38.1K]
The correct options are <span>A) everyday language and B) commonplace characters. As a modern realist, Ibsen's concern were ordinary people, the kind we meet each day, the kind we are. Hedda Gabler is just one of those many women who have wasted their lives in boring marriages, with partners they don't love, doing things they don't enjoy. There are no spectacular stage props - the action takes place in an absolutely ordinary setting. Language isn't grandiose and figurative because characters aren't that either.</span>
