Question

1. natural selection can be described as: a deterministic process a probabilistic interaction of genetic variation and environment a completely random process a predetermined genetic outcome

Explanation:

Natural selection depends on genetic variations within a population and how these variations interact with the environment. Organisms with traits better - suited to the environment are more likely to survive and reproduce. It is not deterministic (as there are chance elements), not completely random (as it is guided by environmental pressures), and not a predetermined genetic outcome (since the environment plays a role).

Answer:

B. A probabilistic interaction of genetic variation and environment
