Multiple Answer 2 points Which observations led Wallace to understand how species change over time? The same species are found in different parts of the world. The characteristics of individuals change when their environment changes. Populations tend to produce more offspring in each generation than will survive. The traits in a population vary from one individual to the next. Individuals with traits that give them a slight advantage over other individuals in a population will survive, and over time individuals with those traits will outnumber other individuals.
