Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

They are not the same. The fittest individual is not necessarily the strongest, fastest, or biggest. Fitness also applies to the ability to find a mate and produce offspring. Survival is the form that an individual will leave the most copies of itself in the subsequent generations
