Evolution is the changing of a species over generations. Survival of the fittest, or natural selection, is where individual organisms who are fitted to survive in their environment live, and those who aren't don't survive. Natural selection affects evolution by keeping some genes alive and losing some.

Is natural selection same as survival of the fittest?

According to evolutionary theory, natural selection is the principle that directs evolution.


Do natural and survival ofthe fittest equal evolution?

Natural selection (survival of the fittest) is a key mechanism driving evolution but they are not the same. Evolution encompasses all changes in allele frequencies in a population over time, while natural selection is one process that can lead to those changes by favoring certain traits in individuals that increase their reproductive success.

Organisms stay the same due to evolution natural selection and artificial selection. true or false?

False. Organisms change over time due to evolution, which is driven by natural selection (survival of the fittest) and artificial selection (human intervention). This process leads to the adaptation and diversification of species.


Why are there not super-strong lions if evolution allows only for survival of the fittest?

This is equivocation between the word "stronger" in terms of "more adaptable to the environment" and "stronger" as in "has more physical force". A physically weaker lion may be able to endure a harsh drought more effectively than a physically stronger lion, so natural selection would select for the weaker lion because it will have children. Additionally, natural selection and evolution are the same thing. Evolution is the long-term change in populations driven by natural selection on individual organisms.


How do you use convergent evolution in a sentence?

Convergent evolution means that different species have evolved to do the same sort of thing. Those two animals show convergent evolution. Convergent evolution explains why they look so much alike.


How is ecology related to zoology?

Evolution results in organisms that are best-suited to survive and reproduce in a given environment. Another way of saying the same thing is that ecological (environmental) pressures "choose," by Natural Selection, the direction of evolution.


What is a macro evolution?

Micro-evolution is not only a part of macro-evolution, it is the same mechanism as macro-evolution. Macro-evolution includes speciation, as a result of continuing micro-evolution.


What does the evolution theory say in the present time?

The same thing it says has happened for millions of years, and the same thing that will happen in millions of years to come. Organisms which can survive better will pass on their genes more often, until the species is suited to the environment.

How good is a Warrior revolution 2.0 lacrosse stick?

Warrior has both the Evolution 2.0 and the Revolution 2.0. They are pretty much the same thing except for some small head designs. Personally I think they are both good. The Evolution is designed more for attack and midfielders. The Revolution is designed for defence and center-midfielders. I dont think its called the revolution 2.0, I think its called the evolution 2.0 even though on google images it shows the exact same thing. If you want go to LAX.com and look up the evolution 2.0, im getting one.


Was evolution around before natural selection?

The concept of evolution existed before the theory of natural selection. Evolution as a concept dates back to ancient Greek philosophers, while natural selection was proposed by Charles Darwin in the 19th century as a mechanism to explain how evolution occurs.
