What is natural selection? Natural selection is one of the basic mechanisms of evolution‚ along with mutation‚ migration‚ and genetic drift. It is the process in which organisms better adapted to their environment manage to survive‚ meaning that they breed more offspring that have their genetic characters‚ while those less adapted tend to be eradicated. What are the names of the scientists who first proposed the theory? Charles Darwin began expressing his theory of natural selection in the late

Natural Selection affects all the levels of taxonomic hierarchy from genes to groups of distantly related individuals. In order for this to occur‚ natural selection must produce adaptations that can be passed down through generations. Heritability‚ the phenotypic variance accounted for by genetics effects‚ must also be present (Latta‚ 2010). The levels of organization are bound together. Therefore‚ if one level has benefited by an adaptation caused by natural selection‚ then latter levels will

Eric Reed Lab Report 1 Lab #3 4/30/2013 Natural Selection I. Intro Hypothesis: If a species of bird is able to adapt and maintain a curved beak‚ then that species of bird will survive and benefit from the process of natural selection. Background: Natural selection is a gradual‚ non-random process in a population of biological traits becoming either more or less common as the population progresses or digresses through generations. In this lab‚ various beak phenotypes were tested to see which
