an English naturalist, geologist, and biologist best known for formulating the theory of biological evolution by natural selection.

the movement of people, animals, or systems from one place to another, whether temporarily, seasonally, or permanently.

the process or result of changing to fit new conditions, environments, or purpose

the natural environment where a plant, animal, or other organism lives, grows, and reproduces

a core evolutionary mechanism where organisms best adapted to their environment are more likely to survive, reproduce, and pass on their beneficial traits to future generations.

a proposed, testable, and falsifiable explanation or prediction for an observation, phenomenon, or research question

difference, change, or deviation in form, position, condition, or amount from a norm, standard, or expected state

the basic unit of biological classification and the lowest major rank in the Linnaean taxonomy system

a common misspelling or an obsolete variant of either evolve or involve,

the total number of people, animals, or living organisms inhabiting a specific geographic area or region at a given time

a fact, event, symptom, or variable that helps show or estimate what will happen in the future

an animal that is hunted, caught, and killed for food by another animal

the set of physical, chemical, biological, social, or cultural conditions and surroundings that affect the growth, health, development, and survival of a living organism or system

the gradual process by which populations of living organisms change, develop, and diversify over successive generations through modifications in their inherited genetic material

living organisms that break down dead plants, animals, and waste materials into simple nutrients

the complete disappearance of a species or group of organisms from Earth, happening when the last remaining member dies and no living representatives remain

the long-term pattern of atmospheric conditions—including temperature, precipitation, humidity, wind, and sunshine—typically averaged over a 30-year period

o spend the winter in a deep, sleep-like state of inactivity to survive cold weather and food shortages

a large, distinct geographical region defined by its specific climate, soil, vegetation, and animal life

fitness in (natraul selection )

an organism's or genotype's relative ability to survive and successfully reproduce in a given environment.
