∙ 14y agoCompetition is the driving factor in the evolution of organisms. The ones who are least fit (have the inferior DNA for surviving) will be outcompeted and will die before reproduction is possible, or will not be able to provide for their offspring. Therefore, their genetic material will be destroyed. Only the strongest organisms (best DNA) will survive, reproduce, and pass on their information. Therefore, a random mutation in one's DNA that causes it to have a beneficial trait that allows it to outcompete other organisms in the community will survive, pass on its DNA and cause the loss of other weaker animals' DNA.

∙ 14y agoCompetition can drive the evolution of organisms by selecting for traits that give individuals an advantage in obtaining resources such as food, mates, or territory. This competition can lead to adaptations that increase an organism's fitness within the community, influencing the overall diversity and structure of species present. Ultimately, competition plays a key role in shaping the ecological relationships and dynamics within a community.
Adaptations, such as structural changes or behavioral traits in organisms, are evidence of evolution because they reflect the process of natural selection acting on heritable variations over time. Organisms that possess advantageous adaptations are more likely to survive and reproduce, passing these traits on to their offspring, which can accumulate and lead to changes in populations or species. This gradual accumulation of adaptations is a key mechanism of evolutionary change.
Nothing sexual reproduces perfectly ... a side effect of evolution. The "fossils" of single celled organisms can look exactly the same, even over a billion years.
Climate change can cause various effects. It causes living organisms to move from their natural habitat.
The climate because the shifting of tectonic plates will create mountains and vallies overtime, affecting organic evolution.
The Amish population in the United States is an example of the founder effect. When a small group of individuals established the Amish community in the 18th century, they brought with them a limited genetic diversity. This has resulted in a higher frequency of certain genetic disorders within the Amish population due to the founder effect.

Organisms play a key role in their own evolution through natural selection. Individuals with traits that increase their fitness are more likely to survive and reproduce, passing on those beneficial traits to their offspring. This process of natural selection drives evolutionary changes in a population over time.
Oxygen. Cyanobacteria were one of the earliest organisms to produce oxygen as a by-product of photosynthesis. This oxygenation of Earth's atmosphere had a profound impact on the further evolution of life, leading to the diversification of aerobic organisms.
Three abiotic parts of a marsh community would be water, climate, stones, and soil. These all effect the living organisms in the marsh community.
Organisms all want the same resources.
Evolution of certain bacteria can lead to antibiotic resistance, making infections harder to treat. Additionally, evolution of pests can result in decreased crop yields and food shortages, impacting human food supply.
Most mutations that occur have a neutral effect, or none at all, so they would not affect evolution. Organisms with mutations that cause detrimental impact typically will not survive; therefore, they will not reproduce, and the mutation will not be passed on, so the species will not be affected overall. Beneficial mutations are typically the only mutations that will affect an organism's posterity and the evolution of its species, but good mutations are very rare. This is why most mutations have little effect on the evolution of a species.

Evolution is the change in allele frequency over time in a population of organisms. By mutation, genetic drift, gene flow and natural selection.
