B. Coloring mutations occurred randomly. Those mutations that were most helpful to the insects survival slowly spread through the population because insects with these mutations were more likely to survive and pass on their genes.

C. The insects were naturally drawn to plants to which their coloring blended. Those individuals with pale green coloring left this environment for an enviroment where they blended better, and individuals with dark green coloring moved in.
