Survival and reproduction
|
Detailed explanation-1: -The idea of natural selection is that traits that can be passed down allow organisms to adapt to the environment better than other organisms of the same species. This enables better survival and reproduction compared with other members of the species, leading to evolution.
Detailed explanation-2: -Adaptations are inheritable characteristics that increase an organism’s ability to survive and reproduce in an environment. Adaptations can help an organism find food and water, protect itself, or manage in extreme environments.
Detailed explanation-3: -Examples of behavioral adaptations include migration, hibernation, gathering and storing food, defense behaviors, and rearing young. Instinctive behavior is an unlearned, inborn tendency to behave in a way characteristic of a species, i.e. migration.
Detailed explanation-4: -reproductive adaptation. A peculiarity of the reproductive mechanism of a species that results in it being better fitted to its environment (for example, prolonged seed dormancy).
