Question

According to Darwin's theory of natural selection, the organisms that adapt themselves better to the environment

• A. Are most likely to evolve
• B. Are more likely to survive and reproduce
• C. Are most likely to live the longest
• D. Are the fastest organisms
• E. Have the same chance of survival as other organisms

Answer 1

The correct option is B Are more likely to survive and reproduce

According to Darwin's concept of natural selection, as a struggle for existence, only those organisms could survive which have favourable variation to adapt with the environmental conditions. In other words, struggle for existence results in survival of the fittest which means that natural selection tends to favour those organisms which are most fit to survive with the reproductive age in a particular environment and to produce offspring.

So, the correct answer is 'Are more likely to survive and reproduce'.
