La variabilidad es el la materia prima sobre la cual la selección natural actúa, seleccionado aquellos individuos que presentan combinaciones fenotípicas y genotípicas más adaptadas para sobrevivir en un ambiente en particular. Los individuos de una población que son 'superiores adaptativamente' poseen más chances de sobrevivir y reproducirse, y por lo tanto tienen también más probabilidades de transmitir sus genes a la siguiente generación.

The aim is to balance water concentration on the inside and outside of the organism. But, that water entering the cytoplasm of the cell will make pressure on the cell membrane. If the </span><span>excess water cannot be removed from the organism, it will swell and burst.</span>
