  3. Factors in Natural Selection Variation exists within every population

  4. Competition Organisms produce more offspring than can survive There is a struggle for survival

  5. Adaptations Traits that help an individual better survive in a particular environment

  6. An organism does not change because of need or desire to survive. It already has the variation. Those that don’t have the variation, will NOT survive.

  7. Survival of the fittest Some organisms are more fit for their environment Ex: Peppered Moth

  8. Natural Selection Overtime, the traits that allowed individuals to survive and reproduce, those traits become more common in the population

  9. Natural Selection at Work Many colors already exist Orange and yellow m & m’s are camouflage against the candy corn!

  10. If m&m’s could reproduce……. Eventually, we would see more & more yellow and orange m & m’s in the population Individuals best fit for their environment will survive & reproduce

  11. Decent with Modification Evolution Each species has descended, with changes, from other species over time Genetic change in a population over time

  12. Evolution of Antibiotic Resistance
