Place the statement in order of how they would occur in nature. Be thinking about natural selection. Organisms produce more offspring than the environment can support. Organisms that survive reproduce, sending their genes into the next generation. Some organisms do not survive. Those that survive are better suited to the environment. There is increased competition for resources.

Organisms with the most beneficial traits will survive. This is commonly known as O ecosystems. survival of the fittest. variations. theory of evolution.
Which of the following BEST describes the theory of natural selection? Living organisms change over time. Each species produces many more offspring than can survive long enough to reproduce. The offspring that do survive contain genes that are inherited from the parents. There is variation among the members of a species. Some of this variation is genetically determined and so can be passed on to future generations. Some individuals have genes that increase their chances for survival and reproduction. These individuals are more likely to reproduce and pass on their genes, causing their genes to become more common in the next generation. There is a struggle for existence among the members of a population.
Natural selection can be defined as: chance differences in organism traits. the chance for species numbers to increase rapidly. the processes that lead individuals to resemble their parents. the differential survival and reproduction of individuals. the genetic fixation of species.
In order for natural selection to occur, organisms must (select all that apply) have a variation that can be passed from one generation to the next. have differential reproductive success. survive longer than another organism. have adaptations to their environment.
Biological evolution is defined as a change in the of a species over time. survival rate genetic makeup number of individuals number of offspring
A scientific approach to explaining some aspect of the natural world includes all of the following except _________. a. a hypothesis b. testing c. faith-based views d. systematic observations
Term Definition in your own words Use the term in a sentence as it applies to ecology. Environment Population Scientific Method Evolution Adaptation Natural Selection Chromosomes The Origin of Species Fitness Gene Pool Selection
Difference between two organism of the same species is called: :: adaptation : natural selection : variation
Misconception: Natural selection involves organisms trying to adapt.Correction:
Which of the following factors is NOT an important part of natural selection? limited environmental resources selective breeding of domestic plants and animals heritable variation unequal reproduction with individuals best meeting environmental demands having the most success individuals better adapted to an environment being more likely to survive
Natural selection is based on all of the following except individuals who survive longer tend to have more offspring than those who die young genetic variation exists within populations Individuals adapt to their environments and, thereby, evolve populations tend to produce more offspring than the environment can support the best adapted individuals tend to reproduce more
Natural selection occurs when which of the following conditions are met? Individual organisms depend on each other to obtain available resources • Variations between individual organisms lead to differential survival chances Habitat and nutrient resources in an area are plentiful over a long period of time The conditions in an ecosystem support a wide range of living organisms
