Solution
The correct option is C In the struggle for existence, the fittest would survive. In the Origin of Species, Darwin guaranteed that there was a constant 'battle for presence' in nature, in which just the fittest would endure. This hypothesis came incompletely from his perusing of Thomas Malthus' Essay on the Principle of Population.
So, the correct option is 'In the struggle for existence, the fittest would survive'.
