Natural Adaptation

Charlotte and Rohan are on a quest to understand Charles Darwin's idea of natural selection! What did Darwin really think?

• Organisms change their traits to the trait that will help them

• Breeding 2 similar animals get the best traits

• Breeding 2 animals with different traits give the best results

• Organisms with better traits for their environment will survive and reproduce
