What process can result in adaptations?
Natural Selection: survival of the fittest
What are three components of natural selection?
The three parts of Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection are struggle for existence (competition), survival of the fittest (those with the best adaptations for the time/environment live and reproduce), and descent with modification (over time the population is more representative of organisms with the best adaptations).
How does Evolutionary Trends affect Natural Selection?
Adaptation for stronger shells.
What happens to unnecessary traits during the process of natural selection?
How does natural selection affect undesirable traits?
Why does natural selection not directly affect genes?
Natural selection acts on the way organisms interact with one another and with their environment. The genes of organisms are not usually themselves involved in this interaction: they direct it through intermediaries such as proteins. So natural selection must work through these intermediaries to affect genes.
What process causes adaptations to evolve?
Natural selection
In evolution what generates the formation of adaptations?
Natural Selection
The development of these adaptations can best be explained by the concept of?
natural selection
How do adaptations arise in a species?
Through natural selection and evolution
What process can result in adaptations?
Natural Selection: survival of the fittest
How do populations benefit from individual adaptations?
because of natural selection
Are there any other adaptations exept from these?
Any other adaptations that "do not fit the environment" get discarded via natural selection
Why do adaptations fit the environment?
Because the adaptations that get established are a consequence of the environment. Any other adaptations that "do not fit the environment" get discarded via natural selection.
What is the term used to describe when organisms with the best adaptations survive and reproduce?
Natural selection
What genetic change allows organisms to survive natural selection in their environments analogies acquired traits adaptations learned behaviors?
Adaptations
How does selection affect natural selection?
Organisms are affected by Natural Selection because Inherited characteristics affected the likelihood of an organism's survival and reproduction.
Which does natural Which does natural selection affect?
natural selection is basiclly only the strong survive which means it effects the weak by killing them but bernifits the strong
