Due to genes and mutations, organisms show variation within a species. Changes in the environment can put a selective pressure on the species - certain mutations may be more beneficial, therefore more individuals with that mutation will exist, as they survive and breed. This process is called Natural Selection.
Natural variation in artificial selection is used because humans choose from among the naturally occurring variation s in species. Natural selection is related to species fitness because Darwin called natural selection survival of the fittest because those that could survive would carry their species on there for being the naturally selected.
Adaptation (I'm studying the same thing ;)
A new and better adapted species.
an English naturalist who realised that all species of life have descended over time from common ancestors, and proposed the scientific theory that this branching pattern of evolution resulted from a process that he called natural selection.
Charles Darwin
Charles Darwin
Yes, it is true.
At the Linnaen Society meeting sometime in 1858 Charles Robert Darwin and Alfred Russel Wallace had both their papers presented before the Society on which they proposed the idea of natural selection as a mechanism of evolution.
To explain the species problem, " that mystery of mysteries " which was the natural history problem of the day. From his observations and experiments Darwin proposed his theory of evolution by natural selection, which provided a mechanism for the observed fact of evolution.
According to science, natural selection chooses the best features for the best survival. When those processes do not occur for some reason, the species does not survive.

On The Origin Of Species By Means Of Natural Selection, Or the Preservation Of Favored Races In The Struggle For LifeCharles Robert Darwin ( of course! )
Charles Darwin's theory of evolution included the natural selection as a means that determined which species would survive and which did not. It remains an open question in the present time.
Variation within species allows death to be a selector of survivors.
Darwin proposed that, over a long period of time, naturall selection could lead to the formation of new species.
Species originate through adaptation by natural selection. Strange thing really, Darwin didn't even believe in evolution.
