Differential survival and reproduction is best described by which term? natural selection creationism inheritance of acquired ch
Sophie [7]
I believe it is natural selection. Natural selection is when over a period of time, traits that are formed to help the organism survive, are passed to the next generation. For example, if there were two types of rabbits. One had black fur and the other was white. They both lived in the artic. The black furred rabbits are mostly eaten by predators because their black fur is easily seen against the ice and snow. Over a period of time, the black furred rabbit would die out. The next generation would mostly have white fur to help them survive.
