Natural selection is "blind" so to speak, it has no goal or end game. Natural selection works generation by generation. Whichever members of a group have the best set of traits to produce and raise fertile offspring will pass those traits on. What is best set of traits may change from generation to generation and so will the species. A good example are the Galapagos finches- see http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2006/07/060714-evolution.html
What else can I help you with?
Why would natural selection not occur in this poplutation?
What population? Perhaps you mean if there were no variation for natural selection to select from.
Which type of natural selection in which the mean characteristics of a population are preserved?
This type of natural selection is called stabilizing selection because the mean traits of the population are being selected for against the immediate environment.
What is the name for the process in which the organisms best adapted to their environment survive?
Its NaTuRaL sElEcTiOn if you didn't know.
What did Charles Darwin and Alfred Wallace independently conclude?
That species arose by mean of natural selection. The independently come up with a theory of evolution by natural selection in 1858.
What does it mean to oppose natural selection?
Natural selection is dying naturally. Ex-getting old and dying. We oppose this by using chemicals(medication) to keep ourselves alive.
Adaptation which allows for natural selection is called?
Adaptation does not allow for natural selection: natural selection causes adaptation.
Which is not part of darwins theory of natuarl selsction?
The idea that evolution is a directed process with a predetermined goal or purpose is not part of Darwin's theory of natural selection. Instead, Darwin proposed that evolution occurs through random variation and selection based on the fitness of individuals in a given environment.
What is the prefix and suffix of natural selection?
The prefix of natural selection is "natural" and the suffix is "-tion".
How does genetic variation support Natural Selection?
Genetic variation in itself does not 'support' natural selection: it is what natural selection acts upon.
What does Survival of the fittest and natural selection mean?
Survival of the fittest is a not quite accurate phrase for natural selection. Natural selection is, The non-random survival and reproductive success of randomly varying organisms.
The mechanism by which organisms evolve is known as?
Natural Selection
What principles includes variation and competition?
Natural selection.
