The correct answer is <span>the contribution an individual makes to the gene pool of the next generation relative to the contribution of another individual.

Each individual in a population has an absolute fitness which is a measure of the successfulness of an individual in reproducing and leaving viable offspring. The relative fitness, on the other hand, is the relative fitness of the individual compared with another individual, usually the one with the highest fitness. </span>

Answer:  the contribution an individual makes to the gene pool of the next generation relative to the contribution of another individual.

Explanation:

It is the ability for an organism to reproduce and create viable offspring (offspring live to maturity and which can reproduce themselves). Relative fitness is the survival rate relative to the maximum survival rate with other population.

For example if organism A ends up finding a mate and have babies and organism B does not this means that organism A has more fitness biologically than organism B

<h2>Concept of biological species</h2>

Explanation:

  • Determine whether peoples from one populace will interbreed with people from the other populace when brought into one another's local environments
  • An animal category is a gathering of individual living beings that interbreed and produce fruitful, practical posterity. As indicated by this definition, one species is recognized from another when, in nature, it isn't feasible for matings between people from every specie to create prolific posterity
  • Individuals from similar species share both outer and inward qualities that create from their DNA. The closer relationship two living beings share, the more DNA they share for all intents and purpose, much the same as individuals and their families. Individuals' DNA is probably going to be more similar to their father's or mother's DNA than their cousin's or grandparent's DNA. Living beings of similar species have the most significant level of DNA arrangement and, subsequently, share attributes and practices that lead to effective propagation
