    Darwin judged the fitness of an individual by

    A)  ability to defend itself

    B)  strategy to obtain food

    C)  number of offsprings

    D)  dominance over other individuals

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

While less favourable variations decrease the chance of successful reproduction. Hence, Darwin judged the fitness of an individual by reproducing ability and the number of offsprings.
