Natural selection acts upons individuals. It helps in the selection of traits which are useful for the survival of an organism and elimination of traits which are harmful for the survival of an organism. It is a process which results in adaptation of organism in its environment.
Evolution acts upon population and is the inheritance of traits across individual population among many generation.

6. Which of these conditions will lead to evolution by natural selection? a. Heavy metal pollution reduces reproductive success of all phenotypes of green algae in the pond. b. Variation among individuals is not genetic; instead it results from learned behavior or physiological environmental responses. c. Introduction of an exotic predator species results in one native prey phenotype evading predation while other phenotypes get eaten. d. Individuals of the population are clones (genetically identical). 7. Which one is used as...
False Question 10 1 pts Choose the statement or statements that are CORRECT about natural selection and evolution According to Darwin's hypothesis, natural selection is the primary mechanism for evolution the theory of evolution includes the idea that all living organisms share a common ancestor organisms that are closely related will have similar DNA and protein sequences natural selection is a random process natural selection will increase the prevalence of gene that improve fitness 1 pts Question 11
Caterpillars/parasitoid wasps Question 5 3 pts In general, evolutionary response to natural selection is slowest in: ✓ [Select] populations, Large (many individuals Small [few individuals] populations with relatively [Select] generation times, and species with [Select] mutation rates. *Slowest' = Lowest rate of genetic change per unit time (e.g. per year, decade, etc.) Question 6 1 pts In general, evolutionary response to natural selection is slowest* in: [Select] * populations, populations with relative generation [ Select ] shorter longer times, and...
Question 1 2 pts Which statement represents a result of natural selection! o the best adapted individuals have lower ness ele frequency in a population does not change Onewalls are added to the population seeded O different phenotypes with a species we favored in different habitats Question 2 2 pts When we say that one individual is more fit has higher fitness than other individuals, we mean that it produces more later than others in the population compete for food...
How Does Evolutionary Change Occur? "I soon perceived that selection was the keystone of man's success in making useful races of animals and plants. But how selection could be applied to organisms living in a state of nature remained for some time a mystery to me." - Charles Darwin Introduction Fundamentally, evolution is the idea that the form and behaviors of a species are not fixed - that they can change over time. Before Darwin was even born, some scientists...
