Question

Darwin’s explanation of the way in which evolution occurs is that ______.

विकल्प

• God determines which species should evolve

• progressive adaptations enable one species to leave more offspring

• certain species have built-in plans of evolution

• those traits used most often persist longer

Answer 1

Darwin’s explanation of the way in which evolution occurs is that progressive adaptations enable one species to leave more offspring.

Explanation:

Darwin explained evolution as a process where individuals with progressive, useful adaptations have better chances of survival and reproduction. These adaptations enable them to leave more offspring than others, leading to gradual changes in species over generations. This concept is central to Darwin’s theory of natural selection, as demonstrated, for example, by the survival and reproductive success of giraffes with longer necks.
