Ability of an organism to survive
and reproduce in a specific
environment
fitness
Inherited characteristic that
increases and organism’s chances
for survival
adaptation
Describe the main points of Darwin’s
theory of evolution
Natural variation in population provides basis
for natural selection to act
Overproduction of offspring forces
competition for resources (struggle for survival)
Organisms best suited to their environment will survive
and reproduce; Other organisms die or leave fewer
offspring (survival of the fittest/natural selection)
Species alive today have descended with modification
from ancestral species that lived in the distant past
All organisms are united into a single “tree of life”
(common descent)
Change in a population over time
evolution
Differences among individuals
within a species
Natural variation

same embryonic tissues, but have
different mature forms
