Answer: Natural Selection is the (natural) process in nature whereby organisms (plants, animals, etc.) that are better adapted to survive and thrive in their environment, are more likely to survive in order to breed/reproduce and pass on their own genes and characteristics. These characteristics can be physical or behavioral.

Artificial selection is where man, instead of nature, determines which characteristics they would like to hone. In the case of crops, edible, tasty, easy to cultivate crops were chosen above harder to grow crops. Animals kept for meat and other products, were selected based on how much milk, wool, meat, etc. could be produced. Health was also a factor, as sickly animals are troublesome (and potentially unsafe to utilize their products). In the case of domesticated pets, let us consider the dog, originating from domesticated wolves. The more easily trained, protective, better natured wolves were chosen to continue to line of species and the undesirables discarded.

Darwin realized that the often exquisite fit of species to their environment is primarily the result of

Natural Selection.
An easy and important way to remember this is by thinking of a species - let’s say a bright white moth. For ages, these moths have survived beautifully, matching perfectly with the white tree bark they live on, until one day, a smoky building begins pumping its soot into the air. This air begins to change the color of the tree bark to black and the once hidden white moths are now plainly visible to birds who eat them easily. Fortunately, every now and then a moth is born who is darker than the rest - black as soot even. And so, the birds keep eating the white moths but missing the soot-colored ones. As time goes by, the soot-colored moths produce more and more similarly colored moths, who are well hidden from the birds AND after enough time, the only moths that remain are soot-colored. This is why so many species “fit” exquisitely into their environment. They have ALL adapted in some way similar to the soot-colored moth.
