Lets use the jungle as an example. A female orangutan has two children. One of the children is strong and smart and very agile. The other however unfortunately is small, weak, and has limited mobility. There is only room for one in the tree she resides in. As a result, the smaller orangutan dies. This is an example of natural selection because in this scenario the fittest of the breed survived to live another day. And by living another day they will eventually pass on their stronger genetics in the family genepool by reproduction creating even stronger offspring than the parents. The weaker ones die and therefore do not become part of the genepool creating a less vulnerable species. Overtime the adaptation gained from this process will lead to greater chances of survival.
It hasn't. Natural selection is a key part of the ecosystem itself.
Yes, natural selection is still occurring in the world today. It is an ongoing process where organisms with traits that increase their chances of survival and reproduction are more likely to pass on these traits to future generations. Changes in the environment can also drive natural selection by favoring certain traits over others.
All modern lifeforms are examples of natural selection, since they are all the result of it.
No, a frog is not an example of natural selection itself. Natural selection is a mechanism for evolution that acts on populations of organisms over generations, influencing the traits that are passed on to the next generation. Individual organisms like a frog can be impacted by natural selection, depending on their traits and how those traits affect their survival and reproduction.
Think GMO crops. Not natural selection, we selected them artificially

No, natural selection is the mechanism that drivesevolution.
Selection is the process throughout evolution that results in a species existing in a current ecosystem at a given time. This is known as natural selection.

One example of natural selection occurring today is the peppered moth in industrial England. Initially, light-colored moths were more prevalent, but as pollution darkened the environment, darker moths had better camouflage and survived to reproduce, leading to an increase in their population over time.

False, dog breeding would be an example of Artificial Selection.
