What are the 4 parts in natural selection?

Answer 1

The four parts of natural selection are

1. Organisms have changed over time, and the ones living today are different from those that lived in the past. Furthermore, many organisms that once lived are now extinct. The world is not constant, but changing. The fossil record provided ample evidence for this view.
2. All organisms are derived from common ancestors by a process of branching. Over time, populations split into different species, which are related because they are descended from a common ancestor. Thus, if one goes far enough back in time, any pair of organisms has a common ancestor. This explained the similarities of organisms that were classified together -- they were similar because of shared traits inherited from their common ancestor. It also explained why similar species tended to occur in the same geographic region.
3. Change is gradual and slow, taking place over a long time. This was supported by the fossil record, and was consistent with the fact that no naturalist had observed the sudden appearance of a new species. [This is now contested by a view of episodes of rapid change and long periods of stasis, known as punctuated equilibrium].
4. The mechanism of evolutionary change was natural selection. This was the most important and revolutionary part of Darwin's theory, and it deserves to be considered in greater detail.

Answer 2

2) Inherited Variation

3) Struggle to survive

4) Sucessful Reproduction

^ Strait from my science book(:

Answer 3

there is overproduction, inherited variation, struggle to survive and successful reproduction

Answer 4

over production inheretid variation succesful survival and reproduction

Answer 5

Isolation, mutation, variation, and speciation

Answer 6

organisms over reproduce,genetic variation occurs,favorable traits are selected(animals live long enough to reproduce),favorable traits accumulate.

Answer 7

there is overproduction, inherited variation, struggle to survive and successful reproduction.

Answer 8

1. Overproduction

2. Inherited Variation

3. Struggle to Survive

4. Successful Reproduction
