NO. Both artificial and natural selection are forms of Evolution in general. Both cause variation by selection within a particular population. The only difference is who is doing the selection, humans or nature.
They are the selective agent in natural selection ;)
Charles Darwin's theory of natural selection differed from artificial selection in that rather then a conscious agent making the selection of what will be, as in all forms of animal and plant domestication, the selecting agent is the environment itself. Now environment might be thought of as context, and just as a word finds meaning in a given context, example a paragraph, so the forms of organisms are determined by fitting properly their context or environment. All other organisms also form part of that context or environment of a given organism, more directly when there is a predator prey relationship between organisms. This predator prey relationship itself plays a selecting role, as predators tend to weed out the weak or injured in a population of prey organisms. Remember these predators are part of the organisms environmental context.

by definition, a chemical behaves as an oxidizing agent only when it accepts electrons
The decolorizing agent in the acid fast stain is acid alcohol. The decolorizing agent in the gram stain is ethanol.
In artificial selection, humans act as the selective agent by choosing which individuals will breed based on specific traits desired for future generations. Through this process, humans influence the genetic makeup of the population over time to enhance particular characteristics.
They are the selective agent in natural selection ;)
The environment acts as the selective agent in the process of natural selection. In this process, individuals with traits that are better suited to their environment are more likely to survive and reproduce, passing those advantageous traits to the next generation. Over time, this can lead to evolutionary changes within a population as those traits become more prevalent.
It is a fine chemical powder which will absorb moisture and clump. The anti-caking agent helps prevent this.
A rational agent is one that does the right thing i.e. every entry in the agent table must be filled in correctly. right thing makes agent successfull. therefore some measuring is required for degree of success.
There is no clear antonym listed in thesaurus but it could be reverse agent.
An agent of change is someone or some thing that facilitates change of some sort.
A change agent is an event, organisation, material thing or, more usually, a person that acts as a catalyst for change. In business terms, a change agent is a person chosen to bring about organisational change. Corporations often hire senior managers or even chief executives because of their aboility to effect change. Use in a sentence - Mr. Farnsworth is considered a change agent for his organization.
A positive selection vector is a type of vector used in molecular biology that contains a gene conferring a specific trait or resistance to a selection agent, such as an antibiotic. This allows for the selection of only those cells that have successfully taken up the vector and integrated the gene.
No, cellulose is not an artificial sweetener. It is a natural polymer derived from plant cell walls and is primarily composed of glucose units. Cellulose is commonly used as a dietary fiber and a thickening agent in food products, but it does not have sweetening properties like artificial sweeteners do.
Agent Smith, the main antagonist from the Matrix, is an artificial intelligence program in the matrix that was programmed to destroy humans and rogue programs that threaten the stability of the simulated world.
