Why does the environment act on natural selection?
I know of no government that acts, in any direct or significant way, on natural selection.
Why does natural selection not directly affect genes?
Natural selection acts on the way organisms interact with one another and with their environment. The genes of organisms are not usually themselves involved in this interaction: they direct it through intermediaries such as proteins. So natural selection must work through these intermediaries to affect genes.
What process in which organisims with traits well suited to an environment are more likely to survive and to produce offspring is?
This process is called natural selection. It is the mechanism by which traits that provide a survival or reproductive advantage to an organism become more common in a population over time.
What comes first mutation or natural selection?
Natural selection can only work on genetic variation that already exists. So mutation comes first, then natural selection.
How has the natural selection harmed the ecosystem?
It hasn't. Natural selection is a key part of the ecosystem itself.
Why does the environment act on natural selection?
I know of no government that acts, in any direct or significant way, on natural selection.
What is the application of natural selection theory to human society?
Sociobiology is the application of natural selection to human society Humans are the product of natural selection at the individual level and the product of evolution at the population level, so the human generated society is influenced by the natural selection of individual humans.

What is the name for the process in which the organisms best adapted to their environment survive?
Its NaTuRaL sElEcTiOn if you didn't know.
Is NOT a component of the theory of evolution by natural selection?
Acquired traits. The theory of evolution by natural selection focuses on inherited traits that provide a reproductive advantage. Acquired traits, which are not genetically determined, do not play a direct role in this process.
Forensic pathologist use evidence to find what evidence in favor of evolution and natural selection?
direct evidence is the observation as it occurs
What is social Darwinnism?
Social Darwinism is a theory about society. This theory states that individuals and groups are a product of natural selection.
Adaptation which allows for natural selection is called?
Adaptation does not allow for natural selection: natural selection causes adaptation.
What is the prefix and suffix of natural selection?
The prefix of natural selection is "natural" and the suffix is "-tion".
What role does the environment play on natural selection?
Nature plays no direct role in artificial selection. That is the difference between artificial selection and natural selection. Nature does play some indirect roles in artificial selection. One indirect role is in providing the organisms with which one beings the artificial selection. Another is in influencing the choices of the organism performing the artificial selection.
How does genetic variation support Natural Selection?
Genetic variation in itself does not 'support' natural selection: it is what natural selection acts upon.
Difference between the Selection tool and the Direct Selection tool?
selection tool for selecting total object direct selection tool for selecting separate points in object.
