What are natural selection's four principles?

In: Biology, Charles Darwin, Evolution [Edit categories]

Answer:

NATURAL SELECTION IS:
1. Individuals in a population have variations
2. Variations are inherited
3. Not all offspring produced can survive
4. Variations that increase reproductive success will have a greater chance of being passed on

DARWIN NEVER SAID SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST. people came up with that after he published his book, On the Origin of Species. He was hesitant in doing so because he was afraid of being excommunicated from the church. Ironic how many religiously zealous people refuse to listen to what he came up with as another religious man

Natural Selection: (simplified)
1. Competition
2. Climate
3. Predation
4. Resources
