Question 6
Why do organisms evolve?
a. Organisms naturally select traits that help them survive and reproduce.
b. Changes in the environment cause organisms to change.
c. Organisms with traits that help them survive and reproduce in their environment pass on those traits.
Selected:d. Organisms make changes to help them survive and reproduce in their environment.
This answer is not entirely accurate. While organisms do adapt to their environment in order to survive and reproduce, it is not that they consciously make changes themselves. The more accurate answer is:
c. Organisms with traits that help them survive and reproduce in their environment pass on those traits.
