Natural selection results in adaptation, increasing in the individual's fitness. Option C. Features are adaptations that help individuals outcompete other individuals for food resources to increase survival and reproductive success.
Natural selection is an evolutive force.
It selects beneficial alleles in a population and increases their frequency.
It is the result of the phenotype-environment interaction which determines gene destiny in space and time.
Natural selection results in adaptation, meaning that it causes an increase in the aptitude phenotype.
Aptitude (or fitness) is reflected by the phenotype that results in the survival, fertility, and capability of having a mate. It is a way of measuring the individual ability to leave fertile offspring.
In many cases adaptations, resulting from natural selection can be correlated to environmental factors or selective pressures applied by other organisms or habitats.
In the exposed example, the features are adaptations that help individuals outcompete other individuals for food resources to increase survival and reproductive success.
selective pressure ⇒ competition for resources
influence in fitness ⇒ increase survival and reproductive success.
