Which of these is necessary for natural selection to occur genetic engeneering genetic variation asexual reproduction or enviormental stability?

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.


Does the process of evolution occur at the individual level, where selection happens to individuals, or at the population level, where selection happens to populations?

Evolution occurs at the population level, where selection happens to populations rather than individuals.
