Evolution
The theory that all species of life have evolved over time from common ancestors through the process of
natural selection
View source
Natural selection
The process by which biological traits become either more or less common in a population based on their relative fitness
View source
Genes
control many of the characteristics of organisms and can be passed to
offspring
View source
Sexual reproduction
Gives rise to an enormous amount of
variation
View source
Favourable characteristics
Give an organism an advantage in survival and reproduction
View source
Survival of the fittest
Organisms that survive in a world of competition are those best adapted to their environment
View source
Natural selection
Best adapted individuals are those that are
not
killed off and reproduce, passing on their
genes
