Why is the variation beneficial to the species but not necessarily for the individual |
| Answer» TION:Species occupy well-definedspaces in the ECOSYSTEM, calledniches, by INCREASING theirpopulation through reproduction.These niches in the ecosystemmay change upon time, evendrastically, which are not incontrol of these organismsOCCupying the space. Thechanges, such as an increase intemperature, may cause a threatto the survival of the species inthat niche. If the species havevariations within the population,some of the variants MIGHT beable to cope with the change,thus having a survival advantageThus, these variants will survive,leaving behind the INDIVIDUALS inthe population with no desirablevariation. Thus, these variantshelp in the survival of species.leaving behind the individuals inthe population with no desirablevariation. Thus, these variantshelp in the survival of species.But, not all variations arebeneficial for individualorganisms. | |
