Natural selection is the means by which living things are selected to reproduce. It is called natural because it is what happens in what is considered ordinary living conditions. It works by allowing only those creature capable of surviving getting to reproduce. If a creature is incapable of living/surviving in the environment that it finds itself in then it doesn't reproduce and becomes extinct.
Survival of the fittest would be used to describe this situation.
when there is competition
the theory about how organisms change over time.
To begin with, a theory can not prove or disprove anything until it is proven itself.
Adaptation does not allow for natural selection: natural selection causes adaptation.
The term that is often incorrectly used to describe evolution by natural selection is "survival of the fittest."
The term that is often incorrectly used to describe evolution by natural selection is "survival of the fittest."
natural selection occurs due to natural phenomena (e.g. changes in diet or predators).artificial selection occurs due to human generated phenomena (e.g. breeding or domestication).

Scientific theory
Natural selection explains the process of evolution: evolution by natural selection. It basically means that species with the highest fitness (survival rate) will live, and be selected by nature for the characteristics they possess that make them more apt to survive. Because of natural selection, evolution occurs.
"Natural selection" is another term often used to describe the concept of survival of the fittest in evolutionary theory.
