Natural selection is part of the scientific theory of evolution. What occurs is that in a population of a certain species, there will be variations. Some variations will help organisms survive better than other. Nature "selects" those traits that help organisms survive. Thus, animals with better adaptations survive longer and reproduce more so that eventually, those adaptive traits become more widespread.
