suggested that species evolve through sexual selection which involves attracting the mate with the greatest fitness and at the same time maximizing the chances of being selected as ‘fit’ themselves.

To explain this‚ Darwin came up with the two processes: Intra-sexual selection refers to the evolutionary process where members

How Natural Selection has Shaped the Modern Mind Abstract Mental and emotional faculties have been widely accepted as complex‚ useful‚ and non-arbitrary pieces of the human mind.

Natural and sexual selection One of the first and central mechanisms proposed by Darwin during his life was that of "natural selection." Some may refer to this as "survival of the fittest‚" whereby species that produce offspring have been successful in doing so because they have produced random individual features which have lead them to live longer and pro-create offspring with the same inheritable desired features. Not all individuals will be able to reproduce‚ therefore only the fittest will "multiply
