Works with the genetic mix already in a population

1 answer

The statement "Works with the genetic mix already in a population" applies to Natural Selection. Natural selection operates on the existing genetic variation within a population, favoring individuals with traits that enhance their survival and reproduction in a given environment. Over time, this process can lead to changes in the population's genetic makeup. In contrast, descent with modification refers to the broader concept of how species evolve and change over generations, incorporating both natural selection and other mechanisms.
