natural selection. when organisms somehow inherit a trait that allows them to survive it is more likely that this trait will be passed on to offspring. the organisms without this trait will die and not be able to reproduce and therfore will not be able to make an undesirable trait more common. the trait that gives the advantage eventually becomes dominate and every young of the specific animal is born with the trait except for the few natural mutations that may occur. a good example of this would be how the length of the giraffe neck became common because of its advantages.

When an organism is first introduced into an ecosystem and has no predators what will it do?
In a new ecosystem with no predators, the organism may experience rapid population growth as there is nothing limiting its numbers. This can lead to competition for resources and potential overexploitation of the environment. Over time, the organism may evolve mechanisms to adapt to the new ecosystem and balance its population size.
Is characteristics and adaptations the same?
No, characteristics refer to distinguishing qualities or traits of an organism, while adaptations are specific traits that evolve in response to an organism's environment to enhance survival and reproduction. Characteristics are inherent features, while adaptations are specialized traits developed over time.
What early form of an organism from which later forms descend?
An early form of an organism from which later forms descend is a common ancestor. This common ancestor is the starting point from which different species evolve through the process of natural selection and genetic variation. It represents the point of divergence from which new species and lineages arise over time.
What can changes in the fossils of a single organism over time reveal?
how the species evolved
Once an organism has a scientific name it can not be changed?
Once an organism is named there is always the possibility that the name can be changed. Since organisms can evolve and change over time the properties that made the organism what it was originally may be no more and require a new name.
Can an organism evolve?
By the process of natural variation and selection by survival of the fittest.
The smallest biological until that can evolve over time is?
The smallest biological unit that can evolve over time is an individual organism, typically a unicellular organism like bacteria or archaea. These organisms can undergo genetic mutations and natural selection, leading to the evolution of their populations over generations.
Why is population the smallest unit of organism that can evolve?
Evolution is defined as a change in allele frequencies over time. Since individuals have only the set of alleles that they're born with, an individual cannot evolve. This leaves the population as the smallest unit that can evolve.
How many organism's might evolve?
all of the organisms can evolve.
What is the smallest biological unit that can evolve over time?
The smallest biological unit that can evolve over time is a population. Evolution is the change in the heritable characteristics of a population over generations. Individuals do not evolve, but rather the frequency of traits within a population changes over time.
What is of how an organism has changed over time?
Evolution.

What is a sentence for evolve?
The demands placed upon the police service continually evolve.Our products evolve over time due to changes in consumers' tastes.
How and why has Civilization changed over time?
because we evolve
A group of organisms that changes over time is said to?
This describes the process of evolution. When organisms evolve, they change over time in a way adaptive to their current environment.
Do organisms evolve slowly over time and can two different organisms have a common ancestor?
Yes they evolve slowly over time and a panda and raccoon have common ancestors.
What changes an organism that take place over time?
A change in an organism that takes place over time is called an adaptation. An adaptation happens when an organism needs to change in order to survive.
