Many elements of natural selection may affect a population’s reproductive success. Describe and give an example of the effects of each of the following on reproductive success within a population:
• Inherited variation
•A population’s potential to produce more offspring than can survive
• A finite supply of environmental resources
Describe how reproductive success may lead to the development of diversity in and among a species.
A frog has longer legs that give it the ability to jump further than any other frog in the population.
