The nonrandom survival and reproductive success of randomly varying organisms.
All organisms are variations. More organisms are born than can possible survive on the resources available. Those organisms that vary in ways that aid their survival and reproduction, over other organisms whose variations do not aid them to do these things, are selected and their genes become well represented in the population while the disadvantageous genes become less well represented. Also the characteristics must be heritable

An attempt to explain observations of the natural world is?
A pseudoscientific theory
What theory has been used to explain the pattern of rapid evolution that often occurs after a mass extinction event?
The theory of rapid evolution rather than over a very long time.
Why are Charles Darwins' ideas so important?
He proposed a theory that attempts to explain why and the fact of evolution works.It is, so far, the best and most accurate theory that adequately explains why evolution happens.
How could the Theory of Evolution contribute to the rise in the popularity of Gothic literature?
The theory of evolution by natural selection explains how adaptive change may lead to speciation,\. As any good scientific theory it explains much but not everything. I seriously doubt, except in an ultimate sense, that you can explain why Gothic literature is now popular with evolutionary theory.
Why is evolution considered a theory and not a hypothesis or a law?
In science, a hypothesis and a theory differs in that a hypothesis is a conjecture based on empirical observation or theoretical derivation yet unproven or by any experimental work, and that a theory is a hypothesis that has been rigorously tested by many researchers and supported by strong evidence. Evolution is a theory that has been repeatedly tested, supported by overwhelming evidence, and can be used to explain natural phenomenon very well.
Are there other theories that explain the same event as evolution theory?
No, there are no other theories but the theory of evolution by natural selection that explain so much about evolution.
Does the Theory of Evolution attempt to explain the origin of life?
The theory of evolution by natural selection.No, as however life came about the fact that it evolves is observed and observable and natural selection would still be one of the main drivers of evolution and the only driver of adaptive change.
Who created the modern theory of evolution?
There are several theories to explain evolution, though evolution itself is not a theory. Perhaps the best known is Darwin's theory through natural selection.
How does anatomy explain evolution?
It doesn't. Evolution is explained by population genetics, evolutionary theory.
What theory would help a microbiologist explain the basic structure of a microscopic organism?
the theory of evolution
What two major theories that attempt to explain hearing are?
Two major theories that attempt to explain hearing are the frequency theory and place or resonance theory. The frequency theory was also called the telephone theory at times during the early stages.
How might the theory of evolution be used by scientists in their studies?
to explain the relationship
William Gilbert used a terella in an attempt to explain?
William Gilbert used a terella in an attempt to explain his theory that the Earth is a giant magnet.
What can the theory of evolution by natural selection explain about a population?
How it can change in response to its enviroment
What does the Ladder Theory attempt to explain?
The Ladder Theory attempts to explain the frustrating mystery of why women sleep with certain men. The theory is a type of sexual evaluation for both sexes.
An attempt to explain observations of the natural world is?
A pseudoscientific theory
Does intelligent design challenge the theory of evolution?
No. Intelligent Design is not a viable theory since it does not explain all of the steps nor provide any evidence to substantiate its claims. As a result, the Theory of Evolution remains unchallenged by it.
