A city was intensively sprayed with DDT to control houseflies. The number of houseflies was immediately greatly reduced

Which explanation applies to this situation? A) Flies from other areas moved in and replaced the ones killed by DDT. B) The few flies that were affected by DDT but survived developed antibodies to DDT, which they passed on to their descendants.
