C. Originally there were a higher number of green grasshoppers, but due to the drought there are more brown grasshoppers.

Explanation:

Camouflage is a survival strategy widely used by living beings in nature. An example of this strategy can be seen in the question above. This is because the question shows that in nature there are green and brown locusts and the prevalence of these corres occurs in relation to camouflage with the environment in which the locusts live.

When grasshoppers live in an environment with a large number of green plants, the population of green grasshoppers is greater than the population of brown grasshoppers. That's because green locusts can camouflage themselves in the wild and their natural predators can't easily see it. However, in this environment brown locusts cannot camouflage themselves and become easy prey for predators. The opposite happens in an environment with dry and brown trees.
