BIOLOGICAL EVOLUTION Flashcards
commonly known as Darwinism or the theory of natural selection, it explain how species change and adapt over time
Biological Evolution
within any population of organisms, there is variety of traits such as size color or shape
Variation
offspring inherit traits from their parents through genetic inheritance
Inheritance
populations of organisms have the potential to produce more offsprings than the environment can support
Overproduction
organisms with traits that give them advantage in their environment are more likely to survive
Natural selection (Survival of the fittest?)
as individuals with advantageous traits reproduce and pass on their genes, the frequency of those advantageous traits increases
Adaptation
accumula of small changes through natural selection can lead to the formation of new species
Speciation
