- Bats use the echoes of the sounds they emit very efficiently to detect, locate and catch their prey. However, it has been claimed that the characteristic efficiency of this process is reduced by moths who are able to hear the sounds emitted by insect-eating bats.
Among the following statements, which if true, best supports the claim above?
(A) On an average the moths who cannot hear the sounds emitted by insect-eating bats live longer as compared to the moths who can hear such sounds, when both kinds of moth are present in an environment continuously free of such bats.
(B) Those moth species that cannot hear the sounds emitted by insect-eating bats are among the species of insects that are most likely to be caught by such bats.
(C) There is a change in the sound pattern generated by the moth’s wing movements when a moth changes its speed or direction flight.
(D) As compared to moth species who cannot hear the sounds emitted by insect-eating bats moth species that can hear these sounds are less likely to be caught by such bats.
(E) Moths that are capable of hearing the sounds emitted by insect-eating bats differ in their abilities to use evasive action to escape capture by such bats.

(C) An extraordinary number of public executions took place during some weeks of each year of the study.
(D) Capital punishment was considered to be important news in the past and therefore newspapers devoted extensive coverage to all executions.
