How does variation ensure that a species to survive?
Creation of variation occurs in a species and help in the survival to species as the most suitable or favorable character pass next generation and under unfavorable condition only the most fit organism survive and help in continuation of the species.
Process by which favorable traits of an organism become more common in successive generations and unfavorable traits become less common?
Because individuals who have these favourable traits will give them them an advantage and therefore they are more likely to survive in their competition with other organisms and breed. Then when they breed, they pass these advantageous alleles onto their offspring which in turn gives them an advantage and they are more liekly to survive and pass it onto their offsprings and so on. Over time, the frequency of the advantageous alleles increases at the expense of the alleles that are less advantageous and therefore decrease so that's why favourable traits become more common in organisms over time.
When considered a evolutionary favorable trait for the organism a trait must increase the individuals what?
chicken
In a food chain how much energy in transferred to each level?
90% is used by the organism, 10% is transferred to the successive organism.
Is hydra a monogenetic parasite?
yes!! monogenesis:- 1. The theory that all living organisms are descended from a single cell or organism. 2. The production of similar organisms in successive generations. 3. Asexual reproduction, as by sporulation or parthenogenesis. 4. The process of parasitizing a single host, in or on which the entire life cycle of the parasite is passed.

greywind and cree are awesome!! ;)
How do fins turn into legs?
Natural selection will alter a living organism over successive generations according to its requirements regarding habitat, food and breeding.
How long does it take for natural selection to work?
"Natural selection is the process by which heritable traits that make it more likely for an organism to survive and successfully reproduce become more common in a population over successive generations. It is a key mechanism of evolution." - Wikipedia.orgThey key words in this statement in which describe Natural Selection is: Successive Generations. Meaning more than one, or even a few generations. Therefor your time in which an evolutionary trait takes to develop depends on two main factors: The type of Organism that you are studying, and the environment in which it lives. If there are less "X" factors then the Organism will be able to advance much more quickly.
