Determine whether each statement is true or false according to darwin’s theory. organisms within a population must compete for resources to survive. the least-equipped organisms may not survive. over time, inheritance of beneficial variations can change the entire species. all organisms in a population are equally equipped for survival. some organisms will outcompete others.

1. true.2. true.3. true.4. false.5. true.the concept of darwin's theory of evolution involves the idea that there are limited resources in a given living environment and that the organisms which live within have variations in their genetic make up due to random mating. the ones with beneficial genetic variations can express certain traits which give them an upper hand in surviving and reproducing in the said environment compared to ones who may have a more disadvantageous variation in traits. over time, the organisms with an upper hand will survive and reproduce more frequently and pass on their beneficial genes while the others die. the result is evolution, where we observe (usually, but not always) eventually, phenotypic distinct changes.
