Summary Introduction
Introduction:
Co-evolution is determined as the symbiotic association of two organisms which can undergo mutual evolution. Some species closely interact with each other as they adapt to the modifications done by evolutionary changes over time due to coevolution. One species that have adapted itself triggers a modification in an intimately interacted species. These changes result in the evolutionary changes in the other species due to natural selection.

Organisms are typically found in environments they are well adapted for, explain what causes adaptive traits to become more common in populations with time.
When a population evolves to be better fitted to its environment, this is an example of , which is brought about by the process of .
Explain the given quotation.
" It is not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent,but the one most responsive to change."
