Natural selection was formally accepted as a major mechanism of evolution in the 19th century with the publication of Charles Darwin's seminal work "On the Origin of Species" in 1859. However, the concept of natural selection was not widely accepted until later in the 20th century when more evidence in support of the theory accumulated.
Charles Darwin is most known for his theory of evolution, outlined in his book "On the Origin of Species" published in 1859. His theory proposed that species evolve over time through a process of natural selection.
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.
Natural selection can only work on genetic variation that already exists. So mutation comes first, then natural selection.
It hasn't. Natural selection is a key part of the ecosystem itself.
Natural selection is the mechanism primarily responsible for the development of today's biodiversity.
The theory of evolution by natural selection. ( I assume you meant accepted )
The generally accepted theory of evolution by natural selection was proposed by Charles Darwin
He came up with the most widely accepted mechanism for evolution, known as natural selection.
Charles Robert Darwin and Alfred Russel Wallace first purposed the theory of evolution by natural selection, but the theory accepted by most scientists today has been modified a bit since Darwin and Wallace's day.
The theory of evolution by natural selection was proposed by Charles Robert Darwin and Alfred Russel Wallace in 1858. This is not the currently accepted theory as that was 157 years ago. Google The new synthesis, or the Neo-Darwinian synthesis for an update to the theory of evolution by natural selection.
Natural selection is a scientific theory proposed by Charles Darwin to explain how species evolve over time. It is based on strong evidence from observations and experiments, making it widely accepted as a fundamental mechanism of evolution.

Adaptation does not allow for natural selection: natural selection causes adaptation.
Darwin's theory of evolution was accepted because it provided a coherent explanation for the diversity of life on Earth. His observations and evidence of natural selection as the mechanism driving evolution were supported by fossil records and comparative anatomy. The theory also offered a unifying framework that could explain the adaptation of species to their environment.
The prefix of natural selection is "natural" and the suffix is "-tion".
Genetic variation in itself does not 'support' natural selection: it is what natural selection acts upon.
One widely accepted theory in life science is the theory of evolution by natural selection, proposed by Charles Darwin. This theory explains how species change over time through the process of natural selection, where organisms best adapted to their environments are more likely to survive and reproduce.
