Which statement is true regarding the theory of natural selection? a.
00:06
Since an organism of beneficial characteristics are guaranteed to reproduce.
00:11
This isn't, nothing's really guaranteed in life.
00:14
And that includes evolution.
00:17
Even if it has beneficial characteristics, it could get struck by lightning.
00:21
Or a rock can fall on it.
00:22
Even if it's the best fell on the bunch, something could happen that causes it not to be able to reproduce.
00:28
Even if it has the best characteristics on paper.
00:35
It states that all organisms with harmful characters can't successfully reproduce.
00:39
Now, this is also not true because one, you have to define, like in this case, what are beneficial characteristics? you might think the buffest seal might be the best because they're defining it by human standards, but like he might just sink because he's buff and not blubbery.
00:58
And what are harmful characteristics.
01:00
And we as humans define these things, but the test of time is a better judge of what is it harmful or beneficial.
01:09
But even if it is a harmful characteristics in its own environment, it still has the chance to reproduce.
01:16
So this is also wrong.
01:18
These two are wrong, so i'm going to remove them from the equation.
01:23
It states that an organism with beneficial traits have a better chance of surviving to reproductive age.
01:29
Now, what i like about this is different from the a is it has a better chance...
