Which statement about natural selection is true?Choose 1 answer:Choose 1 answer:(Choice A)   Natural selection happens because organisms in a population have variations in their inherited traits.ANatural selection happens because organisms in a population have variations in their inherited traits.(Choice B)   Natural selection occurs within an individual’s lifetime.BNatural selection occurs within an individual’s lifetime.(Choice C)   Natural selection can change traits in a population, but has no effect on genes.CNatural selection can change traits in a population, but has no effect on genes.

Select the true statement about mutation and natural selection.Multiple choice question.Natural selection produces mutations.Mutations arise when a population needs to adapt.Natural selection acts on existing mutation.
