What is a term that describes why some individuals produce more offspring than others?
Organisms that are constantly exposed to dangers, which can kill them in mass, have evolved to reproduce in high numbers so that enough of a species will survive and continue the species. Survival of the fittest and natural selection is a common practice among organisms that reproduce fast and in high numbers.
Group of organisms that can reproduce?
A group of organisms that can reproduce and create viable offspring is called a species.
What is required for natural selection to take place?
Natural selection requires variation in traits within a population, heredity to pass on these traits to offspring, and differential reproductive success based on these traits, leading to some individuals having more offspring with the advantageous traits.
Which term describes when individuals leave more offspring than other individual?
Differential reproduction
What is Darwin's four main ideas of natural selection?
Variation: Individuals within a population have differences in traits. Heritability: Some of these traits are inherited by offspring. Differential survival and reproduction: Individuals with advantageous traits are more likely to survive and reproduce. Over time, advantageous traits become more prevalent in the population.

What describes when describes individuals leave more offspring than other individuals?
differential reproduction
What are the 4 key principles of natural selection?
1. Overproduction - more offspring are born than survive 2. Genetic Variation - there is variation in the population 3. Struggle to Survive - organisms with suitable variations will survive and reproduce 4. Differential Reproduction - suitable variations are passed on to offspring

What is the main which new individuals are added to a population?
The main way individuals are added to the population (with animals) is the birth of new offspring.

Differential survival and reproduction: Individuals with advantageous traits are more likely to survive and reproduce. Over time, advantageous traits become more prevalent in the population.
What are the four major points of the theory of natural selection?
1. Overproduction - more offspring are born than survive 2. Genetic Variation - there is variation in the population 3. Struggle to Survive - organisms with suitable variations will survive and reproduce 4. Differential Reproduction - suitable variations are passed on to offspring
