What else can I help you with?
Are new alleles made by natural selection?
No - natural selection does not create new alleles. Variation in alleles needs to exist in the population in order for natural selection to occur. Natural selection will involve the change in allele frequencies over time, but it does not create new alleles. New alleles are the result of mutations.
What process in which organisims with traits well suited to an environment are more likely to survive and to produce offspring is?
This process is called natural selection. It is the mechanism by which traits that provide a survival or reproductive advantage to an organism become more common in a population over time.
What comes first mutation or natural selection?
Natural selection can only work on genetic variation that already exists. So mutation comes first, then natural selection.
How has the natural selection harmed the ecosystem?
It hasn't. Natural selection is a key part of the ecosystem itself.
What does natural selection have to do with biodiversity?
Natural selection is the mechanism primarily responsible for the development of today's biodiversity.
What is the name for the process in which the organisms best adapted to their environment survive?
Its NaTuRaL sElEcTiOn if you didn't know.
Adaptation which allows for natural selection is called?
Adaptation does not allow for natural selection: natural selection causes adaptation.
What is the prefix and suffix of natural selection?
The prefix of natural selection is "natural" and the suffix is "-tion".
How does genetic variation support Natural Selection?
Genetic variation in itself does not 'support' natural selection: it is what natural selection acts upon.
Natural selection need in order to take place?
Natural selection requires variation in traits within a population, differential survival and reproduction based on those traits, and inheritance of those traits from one generation to the next. These factors allow for the gradual accumulation of advantageous traits over time.
The mechanism by which organisms evolve is known as?
Natural Selection
What principles includes variation and competition?
Natural selection.
What was Darwin's overall conclusion regarding natural selection?
That selection was natural.
Is natural selection a form of adaptation?
Natural selection is what causes adaptation.
Is natural selection an example of macroevolution?
No, natural selection is the mechanism that drivesevolution.
What is another term for the surivival of the fittest?
Natural selection
Does natural selection require genetic variation in order to drive the process of evolution?
Yes, natural selection requires genetic variation to drive the process of evolution. Genetic variation provides the raw material for natural selection to act upon, leading to changes in the traits of a population over time.
