Answer: variation, reproduction, and heritability.

Explanation: Genetic variation is an important force in evolution as it allows natural selection to increase or decrease frequency of alleles already in the population. Genetic variation is advantageous to a population because it enables some individuals to adapt to the environment while maintaining the survival of the population.

All species must reproduce to survive. Organisms cannot live forever, so they must reproduce to allow their species to continue to live on. Reproduction is nature's way of allowing a species to survive.

Higher heritability means the trait evolves faster; fewer generations are required for the trait to increase to the same degree as a trait with lower heritability. For this reason, genetic correlation and heritability show how a trait might change from one generation to the next and into the future.

Answer:

Usually, no.

Explanation:

Normally, certain organisms and populations have already adapted to their respective environments. If you take that organism out of its preferred habitat and put it in an environment completely new to it, it would most likely die; in addition, the same biomes on different parts of the world even have slightly different organisms and amount of vegetation covering it.
