Which statement is accurate about variations?

Question

1. In all cases, variations affect how likely it is that an organism reproduces.
2. Organisms with variations that give an advantage are more likely to survive
3. Organisms with variations are less likely to pass these variations to their offspring
4. In all cases variations become more common in a population.

Answer 1

The accurate statement about variations is:

2. Organisms with variations that give an advantage are more likely to survive.

This statement reflects the principle of natural selection, where advantageous traits can lead to better survival and reproductive success, thereby increasing the frequency of those traits in a population over time.
