It doesn't know, it can't know, it has no intelligence. However when populations become isolated long enough to diverge enough, they are different species.

What kind of species can evolve from natural selection?

All kinds of species. After all, all species that doexist are the result, primarely, of natural selection.+++That includes us! We were originally an African primate but slowly diffused to many other parts of the world where we needed different approaches to exposure to solar radiation: hence our several different strains (races). One effect only fairly recently know is that different races have different susceptibilities to certain illnesses - again a matter of natural selection although one hard to understand.

Much of "On the Origin of Species" comes from Darwin's studies of farm animals and domestic livestock.

Farmers know it works, and were, after all, the ones who started the practice thousands of years ago.


What is a cause of natural selection?

The cause of natural selection is a change in the environment of a species. This change can have many causes. E.g. climate change, introduction of a new species, flooding, etc. When such an environmental change occurs, the individuals which are the most fit will have the biggest probability to survive and change the relative gene frequency in a species' genetic pool.


How did artificial selection influence Darwins thinking?

Maybe u should actually answer because i'm to tupid to know the answer/ The artificial selection although controlled by the choices of humans created novelty in the races. During natural selection the environment is responsible for selecting the best types. Darwin's ideas of natural selection were based on the fact of struggle for existence and survival of the fittest. Thus by artificial selection some of the races have been developed which can sustain the present environmental conditions. this has contributed to his ideas.
