Natural selection is an idea that Charles Darwin came up with.

It attempts to describe how animals and plants evolved by using nature as the determiner of who survives. For example, if there is a fast cheetah population and a slow cheetah population in Africa, the slow cheetah population will eventually die out due to them not being able to catch prey to survive. The fast cheetah had the desirable traits necessary for survival in this location. Only the strong survive is helpful to remember when dealing with natural selection.

Charles Darwin came up with the theory. Natural selection follows the "survival of the fittest" rule. This means that animal species evolve based on traits they need, and the traits are determined by which animals survive. The ones that die lack the traits needed for their environment.

kotykmax [81]
When a person have a front lobe damage in the brain, it is most likely that the person would experience memory loss. It is because the frontal lobe is the one responsible in the memory, motor function and the behavior of a person in terms of social and sexually. When she has frontal lobe damage, the correct choice would be she is going to experience memory loss because the frontal lobe controls or stores the memory of a person.
