The co-discoverer of the theory. Wallace and Darwin gad their papers read out together at a 1858 meeting of the Linnaen Society in London.
The environment is the '' natural selector. ''
It is not a matter of agreement, it is a matter of accepting the overwhelming evidences in support of the theory of evolution by natural selection.
Natural selection is the changing of organisms gradually over time. Natural selection and evolution are parts of environmental science due to them being the studies of organisms.
It played an important role, since he used William Paley's Natural Theology to test his naturalistic theory of how adaptations could have been accomplished through the perfecting action of natural selection working on random variations.

Meiosis plays an important role in the process of natural selection, as it allows DNA to replicate.

Nature plays no direct role in artificial selection. That is the difference between artificial selection and natural selection. Nature does play some indirect roles in artificial selection. One indirect role is in providing the organisms with which one beings the artificial selection. Another is in influencing the choices of the organism performing the artificial selection.
It played an important role, since he used William Paley's Natural Theology to test his naturalistic theory of how adaptations could have been accomplished through the perfecting action of natural selection working on random variations.
In Darwin's theory, natural selection plays the key role. Organisms vary through random mutations--slight changes from their parents. The environment determines which are most likely to survive. In Lamarck's theory, changes in phenotype are inherited. This is now known to be (largely) incorrect.
Aside from some genuine scientific concern about the mechanism of heritability and the role of genes at about 1900, the greatest opposition to the theory has been religious ideology and social science/humanities misunderstandings about the theory.

Although we may not be able to say who first defined evolution as the means by which new species arise, we do know that early pioneers of evolution theories include Jean-Baptiste Pierre Antoine de Monet, Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire and Lamarck. Charles Darwin (1809-1892) was not the first to study evolution, but he was the first to recognise the role of natural selection in evolution. He defined the process by which evolution occurs as being natural selection, in his Theory of Evolution by Natural Selection.
