Ĭonstruct an explanation based on evidence for how natural selection leads to adaptation of populations. Īpply concepts of statistics and probability to support explanations that organisms with an advantageous heritable trait tend to increase in proportion to organisms lacking this trait. Ĭonstruct an explanation based on evidence that the process of evolution primarily results from four factors: (1) the potential for a species to increase in number, (2) the heritable genetic variation of individuals in a species due to mutation and sexual reproduction, (3) competition for limited resources, and (4) the proliferation of those organisms that are better able to survive and reproduce in the environment. Students who demonstrate understanding can: HS-LS4-1.Ĭommunicate scientific information that common ancestry and biological evolution are supported by multiple lines of empirical evidence.
