natural selection

Accepted Answer

Hello, everyone and welcome to today's video. So which of the following is a process by which organisms are better adapted to their environment are more likely to survive and reproduce those passing on their advantages, traits to their offspring. Well, let's go over each of our answer choices so that we may solve the problem. First of all, we have a landmark ism or anarchism is a theory proposed that states that any physical changes that an organism suffers throughout their lifetimes is going to be passed on to their offspring. We know that this is incorrect. So we're going to be canceling this out. Then we have genetic drift and genetic drift is a random process. The results in the change of the Olympic frequencies of a population. Here. This process is not going to be random. It is going to be depending on the trades that the organisms have and which one is more likely to help the organism survive and reproduce. Since this is not a random event, we're going to be canceled this out, then we have the speciation. Remember that speciation refers to the creation of a new species. This is not what is happening here. We're not creating a new species were simply passing not advantageous traits. So we're going to also cancel this out. Then we have seen natural selection. Remember that natural selection is a process via which the environment is going to apply specific a selection pressure on a population and is going to favor certain trades over other trades, trades that helped the organisms survive and reproduce. Eventually, these traits are going to be passed on to the offspring since their advantages and provide a survival advantage. Because of this answer choice. C natural selection is going to be what the question is describing. And the final answer to our question, I really hope this video helped you and I hope to see you on the next one.
