    Natural Selection Paper Natural selection is considered one of the most important processes for a variety of species and the environment which allows the fittest organisms to produce offspring. To prevent a species from extinction‚ it is necessary for them to adapt to the surrounding environment. The species which have the ability to adapt to new surroundings will be able to pass their genes through reproduction. Within the process of natural selection‚ it is possible for the original genetic make-up

    Natural selection Natural selection is one of the basic mechanisms of evolution‚ along with mutation‚ migration‚ and genetic drift. Darwin’s grand idea of evolution by natural selection is relatively simple but often misunderstood. To find out how it works‚ imagine a population of beetles: 1. There is variation in traits. For example‚ some beetles are green and some are brown. 2. There is differential reproduction. Since the environment can’t support unlimited population growth‚ not all individuals
