Which of the following best describes the concept of natural selection *

the biggest and strongest organisms survive

the organisms that can get the most food survive

organisms that are best suited to their environment survive and mate more having more offspring

the organisms that live the longest survive

Natural selection can only occur if: *

an organism is able to pass its traits to its offspring

organisms must compete limited resources

there are variations between the individuals of the species

all of the above

none of the above

What is the difference between an organism’s adaptations and its variations? *

an organisms adaptations make it different while its variations give it a better chance to survive

both adaptations and variations can help an organism survive in its environment

an organisms adaptations help it survive while its variations only make it different

an organism can pass its adaptations on to its offspring, while it cannot pass its variations on to its offspring

What is sexual selection? *

traits that give an organism a better chance to mate are more likely to be passed on

organisms that mate only once have a better chance of survival

organisms that reproduce sexually have a better chance of survival than organisms that reproduce asexually
