Write in what context did Darwin use the terms ‘fitness’, ‘survival’ and ‘selection’ while elaborating on the mechanism of evolution. |
Answer» According to Darwin, fitness refers to reproductive fitness. A fit species will leave more progenies. This will result in greater chances of survival. Greater the number of progenies which will survive, more they will be selected by nature to continue the species. This is called natural selection. |
