Honors Biology Evolution Questions and Answers Graded A+ What is natural selection? Natural selection is the process where organisms with traits best suited to their environment are more likely to survive and reproduce. How do mutations contribute to evolution? Mutations introduce new genetic variations, which can lead to new traits that may be advantageous in a changing environment. What is the significance of fossil records in understanding evolution? Fossil records pro...

Adaptation - A trait that benefitted an organism in a particular environment (level: individual) Allopatry - restriction of gene flow because of physical separation Physical geographic barrier: individuals, even if they wanted to, do not have the ability to mate with other group Analogy - evidence for convergent evolution Homoplasy usually come about because of analogies Analogous structure share a common function due to selection pressures Example: wings Artificial selection - some gene...
