<u>Answer</u>: Natural selection.
<u>Explanation</u>:
- The concept of <em>natural selection</em> was given by <em>Charles Darwin.</em>
- According to this concept, in a given environment the organisms that possess <em>better adaptations</em> have<em> higher chances of survival</em> and, leave behind a <em>greater number of progenies</em>.
- When malaria outbreak occurs, the allele frequencies change and only the organisms that possess the alleles which help them to <em>survive</em> this outbreak due to resistance against malarial infection will be selected by nature and<em> hence, this is an example of natural selection.</em>
Living things require specific organic molecules in order to survive. The picture above represents some specific examples of foods that are mainly composed of one of these necessary organic molecules. The organic molecules found in these types of food are
B) proteins.
Natural selection and speciation: 'Ecological speciation'. ... Natural selection is generally recognized as a central mechanism of evolutionary change within species. Thus, natural selection plays a major role in generating the array of phenotypic and genetic diversity observed in nature.
