Natural selection‚ the process in which individuals with certain heritable traits survive and reproduce at higher rights‚ improves an individual’s ability to adapt to their environment. Natural selection may improve an organism’s ability to survive and reproduce in its environment‚ however‚ the evolutionary process is recognizable because
