How can natural selection favor different phenotypes at different times?

∙ 10y ago
Natural selection is something that happens over time and is somewhat dependent on the conditions of climate and environmental changes. There are times when natural selection can favor different phenotypes, if and when the culture starts to seek out others with certain traits and characteristics to breed.

Which fish will natural selection favor?
That depends entirely on their physiology and the circumstances. If you have a fish that feeds mostly by harvesting the floor, for instance, natural selection might favour fish with stalks around the mouth for scanning the bottom and eyes on top to keep watch for predators.
When will natural selection favor altruism?
Natural selection may favor altruism when the benefits of helping others outweigh the costs to the individual. This can occur in situations where individuals are closely related, as in kin selection, or in reciprocal altruism, where individuals help others with the expectation of receiving help in return. Overall, altruism is more likely to be favored in social species where cooperation and group cohesion enhance the survival and reproduction of individuals.

How natural selection favor evolution of drug-resistant pathogens?
Those pathogens that survive the drug attack and then reproduce progeny having this same resistance is a classic selection scenario.
How does natural selection favor an organism's heritable trait?
Natural selection favors a trait by increasing its frequency in a population. Natural selection is differential reproductive success. If one variant of a trait enables an organism to have and raise more offspring successfully than other variants in a particualr environment, then it will become more common in the population.
