Variation in traits within a population is what causes natural selection to occur. When individuals in a population exhibit different traits, those that are better suited to their environment are more likely to survive and reproduce, passing on those advantageous traits to the next generation. This process leads to the gradual change of a population over time.
Variations within populations is what natural selection is " looking " for. That one variant of a population is somewhat better able to survive and reproduce than other variants against the backdrop of the immediate environment is natural selection.
Variation in traits within populations is the characteristic that causes natural selection. This variation could be due to genetic differences or environmental factors, and individuals with traits that are better adapted to their environment are more likely to survive and pass on their genes to the next generation. Over time, this process leads to the evolution of populations as adaptations become more common.
increase in a population over time, as individuals with those alleles are more likely to survive and pass them on to their offspring. This process leads to the evolution of populations that are better adapted to their environment.
Evolution is driven by natural selection, genetic drift, gene flow, and mutations. These processes lead to changes in the genetic makeup of populations over generations, resulting in the accumulation of adaptations that help species survive and reproduce in their environment.
The same as the causes of so called macroevolution. The change in allele frequency over time in a population of organisms. By mutation, natural selection, genetic drift and gene flow. I would rip to pieces about half of the biology text books of America over this constant misunderstanding of evolutionary theory they perpetrate.
Compete? The need to be a moron. Complete? The lack of natural selection.
differential reproductive success caused by genetic variation is necessary for the process of natural selection.
Natural selection is what causes adaptation.
The characteristic within the population that causes natural selection to occur is that individuals within a given population are not all identical because they vary. The other characteristic that causes natural selection to occur is that some variants are better than the others.
Adaptation does not allow for natural selection: natural selection causes adaptation.

No, it's exactly the other way around: natural selection causes adaptation.
Natural selection
Overproduction
the presence of predators
Natural selection usually causes a species to change gradually
