Natural selection refers to the procedure where the species better amended to their surrounding appear to survive and generate more offspring. Natural selection refers to one of the mechanisms that make modifications in the frequencies of genes in populations and thus, it is the mechanism of evolutionary change.

However, the phenomenon of genetic drift and natural selection cannot take place unless and until there is a genetic variation, that is unless some individuals are genetically distinct from others.

Explain the relationship between the c-h bonds and the caloric value. (Does one control the other?)
velikii [3]
The caloric value of food refers to the amount of energy that is produced as a result of complete combustion of that food under normal conditions.
Foods have energy which are stored in the chemical bonds that hold their molecules together. This stored energy is released when the chemical bonds are broken during metabolic processes such as respiration. The amount of energy in different foods differ and  the quantity of energy in the chemical bonds that hold the food molecules together will determine the amount of energy that will be obtained from the food. 
 In most food molecules, the chemical bond that hold the food molecules together is C-H bond. C-H bond is a strong covalent bond which give stability to the food molecule. The higher the chemical energy that is stored in this bond, the higher the caloric value of food. Thus, the calorific value of food is depended on the quantity of energy that reside in the C-H bond.
