Question

Which of the following statements about evolution is TRUE? Evolution describes how an individual's offspring develop from juveniles to adults. Evolution cannot be observed directly, so it must be interpreted through indirect evidence. Evolution occurs when an individual changes within its lifetime, to better fit its environment. Selective survival and reproduction is a requirement of evolution by natural selection.

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-Selective survival and reproduction is a requirement of evolution by natural selection.

Explanation:

Evolution is a slow process of change in the heritable features of species over a successive generation of time.

The process of evolution takes place during a long period of time only when the advantageous mutations are passed on to the generations and become established.

The mechanism of this process is natural selection which increases the reproductive rate as well as the survival rate of the species.

Thus, the selected option is the correct answer.
