Respuesta :
Natural selection can cause microevolution (change in allele frequencies), with fitness-increasing alleles becoming more common in the population.
Fitness is a measure of reproductive success (how many offspring an organism leaves in the next generation, relative to others in the group).
Natural selection can act on traits determined by alternative alleles of a single gene, or on polygenic traits (traits determined by many genes).
Natural selection
Natural selection on traits determined by multiple genes may take the form of stabilizing selection, directional selection, or disruptive selection.
All of these mechanisms can make a population evolve, or change its genetic makeup over generations.
But there's one mechanism of evolution that's a bit more famous than the others, and that's natural selection. What makes natural selection so special? Out of all the mechanisms of evolution, it's the only one that can consistently make populations adapted, or better-suited for their environment, over time.
You may have already seen natural selection as part of Darwin’s theory of evolution. In this article, we will dive deeper – in fact, deeper than Darwin himself could go. We will examine natural selection at the level of population genetics, in terms of allele, genotype, and phenotype frequencies.
