Question

only variations that confer an advantage to an individual organism will survive in a population do you agree with this statement​

Answer 1

Answer YES

Explanation:

Only variations that confer an advantage to an individual organism will survive in a population. This statement is mostly true, but not always. Variations that are advantageous to an organism will help the organism to survive better in the environment. So these will survive in the population.

Answer 2

$\mathfrak{\huge{\red{\underline{\underline{Answer:-}}}}}$

It is agreeable that only variations that confer an advantage to an individual organism will survive in a population. All variation does not necessarily provide an equal chance of survival to an organism in the environment. Survival chances highly depend on the nature of variations. For example- variation leading to the increase of heat-resistant bacteria is beneficial to the bacteria for its survival when it finds itself in a condition where suddenly there is an increase in the temperature of its habitat above the optimum temperature required for survival.
