It states that organisms with beneficial traits have a better chance of surviving to reproductive age
Explanation:
Natural selection proposes that nature selects those organisms that are well adapted to the prevailing environmental conditions to survive and reach reproductive maturity with the favourable characteristics being passed to the offsprings. Those organisms that are poorly adapted die young, leaving no offspring and their characteristics are eventually eliminated from the population.
