  1. Chapter 18.3 Natural Selection Revisited AP Biology Spring 2011

  2. Natural Selection • Natural Selection may be the most influential microevolutionary process

  3. Natural Selection • An allele that ensures better survival or reproduction will influence the frequency of that allele

  4. Natural Selection • Allele frequency can depend on the organisms involved and the selection pressure
