|
|
Individuals with less adaptive traits cannot survive.
|
|
|
Adaptive traits may make an individual better suited to an environment.
|
|
|
Individuals that better suited to environment are better able to survive tend to leave more offsprings
|
|
|
Frequency of adaptive tends to become more common in a population over time.

Detailed explanation-1: -Darwin states two inferences from two observations; Observation-1: members of the population vary in their inherited traits. Observation-2: All species can produce more offspring than the environment can support, but many of the offspring fail to survive and reproduce.
Detailed explanation-2: -There are four principles at work in evolution-variation, inheritance, selection and time. These are considered the components of the evolutionary mechanism of natural selection.
Detailed explanation-3: -After his voyage, Darwin made the following inferences: There is variation within populations. Some variations are favorable. Not all young produced in each generation can survive.
Detailed explanation-4: -Natural selection is a mechanism of evolution. Organisms that are more adapted to their environment are more likely to survive and pass on the genes that aided their success. This process causes species to change and diverge over time.
