The evidence for natural selection is presented as a random variation of a characteristic allowing a particular strain of organism to survive with a higher probability of successful reproduction. Population change over a short period is detailed, and examples of antibiotic or vaccine resistance are given. Students will find this information accessible, making it a good complement to a teacher-led lesson.
