• Answer:-

    Darwin’s theory of natural selection explains how species evolve over time. It suggests that organisms with traits better suited to their environment survive and reproduce, passing those traits to their offspring. Over generations, beneficial traits become more common, while less useful ones disappear. This process leads to adaptation and, eventually, the formation of new species. Survival isn’t random—nature "selects" the fittest individuals. For example, faster predators catch more prey, and well-camouflaged animals avoid predators. This idea, introduced in On the Origin of Species (1859), remains a cornerstone of evolutionary biology, shaping our understanding of life on Earth.
