D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Natural selection is the process through which populations of living organisms adapt and change. Individuals in a population are naturally variable, meaning that they are all different in some ways. This variation means that some individuals have traits better suited to the environment than others.

Detailed explanation-2: -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.

Detailed explanation-3: -The theory of evolution by natural selection means that the inherited traits of a population change over time. Inherited traits are features that are passed from one generation to the next. Natural selection explains how organisms in a population develop traits that allow them to survive and reproduce.

Detailed explanation-4: -Evolution: Evolution consists of changes in the heritable traits of a population of organisms as successive generations replace one another.
