The correct choice that identifies a positive correlation regarding the increase in peppered moth populations in England during the late 1800s is:
**the correlation between air pollution and black moth populations.**
This correlation reflects how the darker (black) form of the peppered moth became more prevalent in industrial areas due to the soot from air pollution, which darkened tree bark and made the black moths less visible to predators compared to the lighter-colored moths.
