What well known process was important in developing both mendels and Darwins ideas?
artificial selection
How does adaptation relate to natural selection?
Its a chicken and egg situation. Adaptation is the response to Natural Selection, and Natural Selection is the response to Adaptation. They both operate by the principle: the members of any species that are best adapted to their environment are the ones most likely to survive and reproduce the next generation, where the process repeats. That does not mean the strongest or most aggressive, they often get themselves killed off.
Which of the following was not part of Darwin's theory of natural selection?
A: More offspring are produced within a population of a species than can generally survive. B: More offspring are produced within a population of a species than can generally survive. C: Some individuals possess features that increase their probability to survive compared to individuals lacking these features. D: Some individuals possess features that increase their probability to survive compared to individuals lacking these features Individuals in a population of a species vary in many ways Individuals in a population of a species vary in many ways Changes in the environment cause beneficial mutations.
When lions prey on a herd of antelope some antelope are killed and some escape which part of Darwins concept of natural selection might be used to describe this situation?
Survival of the fittest would be used to describe this situation.
Summarize the main ideas in Darwins theory?
Individual organisms differ, and some of this variation is heritable Organisms produce more offsprings than can survive, and many that do survive do not reproduce Because more organisms are produced that can survive; they compete for limited resources Each unique organism has different advantages and disadvantages in the struggle for existence. Individuals best suited to their environment survive and reproduce most successfully. These organisms pass their heritable traits to their offspring's. Other individuals die or leave fewer offsprings. This process of natural selection causes species to change over time. Species alive today are descended with modification from ancestral species that lived in the distant past. This process, by which diverse species evolved from common ancestors, united all organisms on Earth into a single tree of life
How did the idea of artificial selection contributed to Darwins ideas on natural selection?

What was Darwins process of evolution called?
natural selection
What does darwins theory of natural selection emphysize among the individuals of a species?
The Darwin's theory of natural selection emphasizes that the organisms of the same species with more beneficial traits survive while the others die off.
What book did he write about natural selection?
Darwins theory of evolution :)
What is Darwins principle?
The principle of evolution by means of natural selection.
What is the significance of the fourth step in Darwins theory of natural selection?
Survival of the fittest
What process did Darwins book suggest that organisms evolve through?
natural selection
Which is not of Darwin's theory of natural selection?
which is not part of darwins theory of natural selction
Darwins theory of evolution by natural selection supports the idea of survival of the?
fittest
What is the process by which organisms best adapted to their environment survive to reproduce while those not so adapted do not survive to reproduce?
it is called evolution, and happens over hundreds of years, camels have thick eyelids to keep their eyes safe in sandstorms, this was Charles Darwins theory. That's half of it. You forgot the other MORE important half. Natural Selection. The whole process has very little to do with a camel's eyelids.
What well known process was important in developing both mendels and Darwins ideas?
artificial selection
What of Mendels conclusions is a necessary foundation for Darwins theory of natural selection?
There are alternate versions of a gene.
