Here is a quote: "The relationship between adaptation and natural selection does not go both ways. Whereas greater relative adaptation leads to natural selection, natural selection does not necessarily lead to greater adaptation." I do not recall who said it, but this is what the relationship between both is. Here is a quote: "The relationship between adaptation and natural selection does not go both ways.

Natural selection is one force that can lead to evolution.natural selection is one cause of evolution
the 4th step of natural selection
The fourth step of the successful reproduction is the natural selection
Organisms are affected by Natural Selection because Inherited characteristics affected the likelihood of an organism's survival and reproduction.
Natural Selection!
The four stages are: Overproduction, Genetic Variation, Struggle to Survive, and Successful Reproduction
No, it doesn't. It doesn't help to form new species since the offspring are clones and exactly the same.
Mutations are random changes in DNA; genetic recombinations are new arrangements of genetic material (as a result of sexual reproduction). Together, they are the "fuel" that powers the "evolution machine," the direction of which is determined by natural selection.
Artificial selection is anthropogenic -- humans interfere with nature to determine what traits get passed on, whereas natural selection is when through sexual reproduction the traits passed on are determined by survival of the fittest.
Natural selection ' selects ' from among variations. Some organisms are better suited to their immediate environment and survive and out reproduce other organisms. All these organisms are genetically variant. That is the simple connection between natural selection and genetic variation. ( that variation coming about by mutation and recombination )
What would be selected if organisms did not have differences that lead to better survival and reproduction, or the opposite. That is all natural selection is.
