Natural selection select depending on 2 things.
1. The ability to survive in a habitat until reprocing
2. The ability to reproduce and to get a mate
natural selection
Natural selection works on mutations that are already in place. The environmental changes will select for certain mutations if the selective pressure is supplied long enough for several generations of offspring to carry a higher percentage of the mutation.
Artificial selection.
Adaptation is the result of natural selection.
by natural selection.
Stabilizing selection.

What population? Perhaps you mean if there were no variation for natural selection to select from.
natural selection. :)
Yes it does. Without variance in the organisms genome, that gives variance to the phenotype, there would be nothing for natural selection to select from.
Genetic variation. If there were no variation in the genes/phenotype then natural selection would have nothing to select from.
A technique in which breeders select particular traits to be passed on is called? A)Natural Selection B)Artificial Selection C)Darwin Selection D)Synthetic geneology
Without variation there is nothing to select from.
No genetic variation in the cheetah population gene pool, so natural selection has nothing to select from and the inbreeding depression keeps deleterious traits breeding true among cheetahs and natural selection can not eliminate them from the gene pool.
Artificial selection is when humans select traits, such as color or taste and breed for those traits. Natural selection chooses the creatures that are best able to give birth to more offspring, carrying on their genes. The environment chooses.
Mutation is the important " starter " of the adaptive change engendered by natural selection. Variation is key to selection and without variation in organisms there would be nothing to select from for the survival and reproductive success of the organism against the immediate environment.
