Answer: variation, reproduction, and heritability.
Explanation: Genetic variation is an important force in evolution as it allows natural selection to increase or decrease frequency of alleles already in the population. Genetic variation is advantageous to a population because it enables some individuals to adapt to the environment while maintaining the survival of the population.
All species must reproduce to survive. Organisms cannot live forever, so they must reproduce to allow their species to continue to live on. Reproduction is nature's way of allowing a species to survive.
Higher heritability means the trait evolves faster; fewer generations are required for the trait to increase to the same degree as a trait with lower heritability. For this reason, genetic correlation and heritability show how a trait might change from one generation to the next and into the future.
All rock on the ocean floor is less than 180 million years old because <span>reverse polarity removed older rock strips magnetized in a different direction. Also,</span> the oldest parts reach the continental crust and then the ocean floor sinks beneath the continental crust, into the mantle.
