Question

Amanda is studying insects and their responses to light. She places several types of insects in a container in a dark room. She then shines a flashlight in one corner of the container. After a few minutes, she notices that all of the moths she has placed in the container are staying near the light. Which of the following is true?

Answer 1

okay so i learned this at a pretty young age but insects always go to lights because they think it's the moon. and they get distracted by all the other lights in the world because they are always on so your answer is because they follow the moon but get distracted by the other light sources in the world.
