Question

Explain how an organism's ability to survive and reproduce can affect the entire population

Answer 1

Answer:

The organism will pass on the traits to their offspring. If the offspring also has an increased chance of survival it will have a higher chance of passing on the traits. Over a long period of time the entire population can inherit this trait.

Explanation:

According to the theory of natural selection organisms with beneficial traits are more likely to survive to the reproductive stage and pass on the beneficial gene to their offspring. Natural selection selects beneficial traits.
