Natural selection - Coggle Diagram

- - - - He believed that these similarities could be explained with common decent.
      - He also found that each creature was adapted to island life.
        
        If only the best adapted could reproduce over time more positive changes would occur to the creatures
      - Darwin did not know that genes existed, but he could see that many traits are heritable passed from parents to offspring.
  - - - This is because rat snakes are found all over the Eastern and Midwestern states, and are subjected to all types of weather and terrain.
    - - As a result, rat snakes have had to adapt to their local environments in an effort to avoid detection and hunt more effectively.
  - - - This meant that there were more white moths than dark moths.
    - - This led into the white moths being killed much more often while the darker ones were hunted less.
        
        Later this led to darker moths being the large amount of the population as they reproduced more due to their colour.
        
        The white moths on the other hand were hunted down more so less of them could reproduce.
- - - - Some of these facts are found in fossils, genetics, and math.
- - - - Difference within the population
    - - Changes to in the population to fit the environment
    - - The best suited species will survive
    - - The species will reproduce and carry on their genes.
    - - Over time species with dominant traits will be the main species in the environment
