Detailed explanation-1: -Natural selection is the Unequal survival and reproduction that results from the presence or absence of particular traits. Adaption is an inherited trait that increases an organism’s chance of survival and reproduction in a certain in a certain environment.

Detailed explanation-2: -Natural selection is the unequal survival and reproduction of organisms resulting in the preservation of favorable adaptations. Natural selection favors individuals with higher biological fitness, which is defined by the individual’s ability to produce viable offspring.

Detailed explanation-3: -Which statement about natural selection is most correct? Well-adapted individuals leave more offspring, and thus contribute more to the next generation’s gene pool, than do poorly adapted individuals.

Detailed explanation-4: -Natural selection is the differential survival and reproduction of individuals due to differences in phenotype. It is a key mechanism of evolution, the change in the heritable traits characteristic of a population over generations.

Detailed explanation-5: -What is not true of the process of natural selection? microevolution. heritable changes in characteristics of a population from one generation to the next.
