Recap main ideas of natural selection:
1. Evolution is change in species over
time.
2. There is an overproduction of offspring,
which leads to competition for
resources.
3. Heritable variations exist within a
population.
4. These variations can result in differential
reproductive success.
5. Over generations, this can result in
changes in the genetic composition of
the population.
REMEMBER: Individuals do NOT evolve!
Populations evolve!
