Variation is important for natural selection because it provides the raw material for evolution to work with. Without variation in traits among individuals, there would be no differences for natural selection to act upon. This variation allows some individuals to be better suited to their environment, increasing their chances of survival and reproduction, while less well-adapted individuals are less likely to survive and pass on their genes. Over time, this process leads to the evolution of populations with traits that are better suited to their environment.
Genetic variation is important for natural selection to drive evolution because it provides the raw material for natural selection to act upon. Without genetic variation, there would be no diversity in traits for natural selection to favor or eliminate, and evolution would not be possible.
Evolution by natural selection actually relies on variation within a population. Without variation, there would be no genetic differences for natural selection to act upon, leading to no evolution. Variation provides the raw material for natural selection to work with, allowing beneficial traits to be favored and passed on to future generations.

Yes, natural selection requires genetic variation to drive the process of evolution. Genetic variation provides the raw material for natural selection to act upon, leading to changes in the traits of a population over time.
Variation in the organisms under selection. In both artificial selection and natural selection there must be heritable variations that have the possibility of being in the case of artificial selection what the selector wants in the organism and in thje case of natural selection survivability and reproductive advantages.

Genetic variation in itself does not 'support' natural selection: it is what natural selection acts upon.
Mutation is the important " starter " of the adaptive change engendered by natural selection. Variation is key to selection and without variation in organisms there would be nothing to select from for the survival and reproductive success of the organism against the immediate environment.
No, natural selection works on that genetic variation presented to it.
Natural selection.
Environmental change and variation :)
Genetic variation is necessary for natural selection to occur. This variation provides the raw material for differential survival and reproduction, which drives the process of natural selection. Without genetic variation, there would be no differences for natural selection to act upon.
no there is no genetic variation for natural selection to act upon
Genetic variation. If there were no variation in the genes/phenotype then natural selection would have nothing to select from.
Without variation natural selection would have nothing to select from that would confer survivability and reproductive success. on the organisms being selected against the organisms conspecifics and the immediate environment. Mutation and sexual recombination provide the main sources of this variation that is needed to make selection work. Mutation is the variation presented that causes the real adaptive change that can lead to speciation.
Natural selection doesn't reduce variation. Variation is regulated by the rate of mutation.Natural selection reduces the chance of bad variation from being passed on and increases the chances for good variation to be passed on.
