Question

Imagine you are talking to a friend who says "oh that animal has the most muscles and is the strongest so it will survive. That's what survival of the fittest means." Explain to your friend why they are wrong and what the true, scientific meaning of the phrase "survival of the fittest" means. Your answer should include the following vocab: natural selection, adaptation, evolution, genetic variation

Answer 1

Muscle mass isn'y always a genetic trait, for instence I could work out a bounch and become ripped. if I have kids they could still be couch potatos. That is because traits aquired in ones own life are not passed on, it is the mutations you posses from birth that are passed on if the envirorment aproves of them. If you have lots of muscles and are strong you are not nessisarly more likely to survive anyway, because how are you gonna run away from a lion when youve got all these arm muscles waying you down.

Answer 2
