A) ability to defend itself
B) strategy to obtain food
C) number of offsprings
D) dominance over other individuals
Correct Answer: D
Solution :

Less favourable variations would be at a disadvantage and organisms possessing them would therefore, have their chances of successful reproduction decreased. The survival of the fittest is a result of selection and proliferation of only those organisms which were most suitably adapted to the environment.
