Which of the following statements best describes evolution? Individuals change in response to changes in the environment. The match between individuals and their environment decreases over time. Populations change genetically from one generation to the next. Natural selection favors the most abundant trait.

"key 'point in Darwin's explanation of evolution is that the biological structures most likely inherited are those that have become better suited to the environment through constant use: mutations that occur are those that will help future generations fit into their environments_ any trait that confers even a small increase in the probability that its possessor will survive and reproduce will be strongly favored and will spread through the population. genes change in order to help organisms cope with problems encountered within their environments_ extinction is nature's way of weeding out undeserving organisms"
