Sociobiology is the application of natural selection to human society Humans are the product of natural selection at the individual level and the product of evolution at the population level, so the human generated society is influenced by the natural selection of individual humans.

How was Charles Darwin's theories of natural selection were apllied to social Darwinism?

It wasn't! Social Darwinism is a concept developed by Herbert Spencer and has nothing to do with the biological theory of evolution by natural selection. It is a Landmarkian concept in a fashion as groups compete with groups and acquired group superiority's are passed on. Also, the theory of evolution by natural selection is a individual selection theory, basically, and has nothing to do with group selection of this nature. Darwin was not pleased by this Spencerian corruption of his theory. PS: I, personally, am appalled that this nonsense is still being taught in schools. Tell your teacher ( sociology, perhaps? ) to get a clue!
