Question
which of the following agents of evolution will help a population become better adapted to its environment?
multiple choice
natural selection
gene flow
mutation
genetic drift
bottleneck
Natural selection is the process by which organisms better adapted to their environment tend to survive and reproduce more successfully. Gene flow is the transfer of genetic material from one population to another. Mutation is a change in the DNA sequence. Genetic drift is the change in the frequency of an existing gene variant in a population due to random sampling of organisms. A bottleneck is a sharp reduction in the size of a population. Only natural - selection actively promotes adaptation to the environment.
