  • Population
    A group of individuals that belong to a species, live in an area and interbreed with one another to form offspring
  • Evolution
    A process where the transformation of species happens through time
  • Founder species

    The ancestor that diverged into two lineages
  • Amakihi and Nihos finch
    • Descendants and products of speciation
  • It is the genetic changes in populations that are passed on to successive generations over time
  • Natural selection
    The process where individual organisms that have favorable traits experience greater fitness and reproductive success than those that do not have the trait
  • Natural selection and changes in population
    1. Increase in frequency of favorable traits
    2. Decrease in frequency of unfavorable traits
    3. Emergence of new species
  • Artificial selection
    The process of selecting plants or animal individuals for breeding, based on our understanding of heritable traits
  • Artificial selection
    • Served as the primary principle behind selective breeding for producing new varieties of plants and animals
    • Increases chances of achieving desirable traits that could lead to higher production
  • Varieties in bean products
    • Achieved through selective breeding
  • Evolution of pig
    • Through series of domestication breeding
  • A population refers to the group of all individuals belonging to a species that live in a particular area and interbreed with one another to form an offspring
  • Evolution is a process involving the transformation of species that happens through time, including changes in morphology or genetics
  • Natural selection refers to the process where individual organisms having favorable traits have greater survival fitness and reproductive success than those that do not have the trait
  • Artificial selection is a process of selecting plants or animal individuals for breeding, based on our understanding of heritable traits
