Answer 1

Answer:

a) A successful organism can find food, escape predators, and reproduce.

Explanation:

• Evolution is defined as genetic changes in population of organisms through time that lead to differences among them.
• To evolve successfully, an organism has to survive and pass down its genetic material to its progeny.
• All these conditions will be fulfilled only when organism will find food and escape predators to ensure survival.
• Thus, an evolutionarily successful organism can find food escape predators and reproduce.
