The ancient Greeks already had noticed that it's what goes on but Darwin was the first to write down his ideas into a surviving book, with a lot of detailed observations.

What process in which organisims with traits well suited to an environment are more likely to survive and to produce offspring is?
natural selection
Is adaptation part of natural selection?
Adaptation is the result of natural selection.
How can a wide range of phenotypes increase the chance that some individuals will survive in a changing environment?
by natural selection.
Does natural selection occur in the world today?
Yes, natural selection is always occurring.
What comes first mutation or natural selection?
Natural selection can only work on genetic variation that already exists. So mutation comes first, then natural selection.
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.
Why would natural selection not occur in population?
It has not reached carrying Capacity
What process in which organisims with traits well suited to an environment are more likely to survive and to produce offspring is?
natural selection
Adaptation which allows for natural selection is called?
Adaptation does not allow for natural selection: natural selection causes adaptation.
Does Natural selection occur in opposition to evolution?
Some have thought so because natural selection was seen to reduce variation by culling unsuccessful phenotypes so that alleles did not change over time in populations. This is no longer thought as much as the rates of mutation are better understood and known to outpace natural selection and that adaptive change can accommodate more than one successful phenotype so that many allels can be fixed in populations gene pools.
How does genetic variation support Natural Selection?
Genetic variation in itself does not 'support' natural selection: it is what natural selection acts upon.
Is natural selection a form of adaptation?
Natural selection is what causes adaptation.
Is natural selection an example of macroevolution?
No, natural selection is the mechanism that drivesevolution.
Is adaptation part of natural selection?
Adaptation is the result of natural selection.
What principles includes variation and competition?
Natural selection.
The mechanism by which organisms evolve is known as?
Natural Selection
What was Darwin's overall conclusion regarding natural selection?
That selection was natural.
