Finally natural selection is seen in real would populations also because

    Introduction: In this lab simulation‚ we studied the different factors that go into natural selection. These factors were things such as: fertility‚ the complexity of genes‚ the use of natural selection versus not using it‚ and the rate of mutation. All of these things would then affect the amount of generations it would take to get the “target phrase.” This target phrase was used as a tool to understand the complexity of some genes compared to the simplicity of others.
