    STATED CLEARLY: EVOLUTION AND NATURAL SELECTION (TRANSCRIPT) What exactly is evolution? In biology‚ the theory of evolution doesn’t exactly tell us how life began on Earth‚ but tells us how life‚ once it came into existence‚ diversified into the many incredible forms we see now and in the fossil record. It also helps us make sense of the way in which modern creatures continue to adapt and change today. In biology‚ evolution can be defined as: ‘Any change in the heritable traits (those are physical

    Natural selection is the process by which individual organisms with favorable traits are more likely to survive and reproduce than those with unfavorable traits. In order for natural selection to occur there must be heritable variation for a trait and there must be differential survival and reproduction associated with that trait. (C.Stated) Heritable traits become either more or less common in population as the inherited traits in the differential reproductive success of the better adapted organisms
