Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which states that organisms with traits most suited to their environment survive and leave more offspring?
A
natural selection
B
artificial selection
C
sexual selection
D
speciation
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -According to Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution by natural selection, organisms that possess heritable traits that enable them to better adapt to their environment compared with other members of their species will be more likely to survive, reproduce, and pass more of their genes on to the next generation.

Detailed explanation-3: -An adaptation is any heritable trait that helps an organism, such as a plant or animal, survive and reproduce in its environment.

Detailed explanation-4: -Natural selection, also known as “survival of the fittest, ‘’ is the more prolific reproduction of individuals with favorable traits that survive environmental change because of those traits. This leads to evolutionary change, the trait becoming predominant within a population.

Detailed explanation-5: -Organisms with heritable (genetically determined) features that help them survive and reproduce in a particular environment tend to leave more offspring than their peers.
