Lesson 2 Review: Natural Selection

Behavioral changes of individuals of a species that allow for better survival. (Acquired traits)

• Variation
• Adaptation
• Behavior
• Environment

When every organism of a species has died.

• Evolution
• Natural Selection
• Extinction
• Artificial Selection

Where the better adapted organisms survive to pass traits along to offspring.

• Evolution
• Natural Selection
• Extinction

What is the advantage of having different shaped beaks?
