What is Natural Selection???

Natural selection is the gradual, nonrandom process by which biological traits become either more or less common in a population as a function of differential reproduction of their bearers. A mutation will tend to become more common in a population through natural selection.Phenotypes are what interact with the environment. Natural selection can distinguish between a tall plant and a short plant. So being tall (or short) may make an organism more fit.
