Darwinism explains all the following except
Within each species, there are variations
Organisms tend to produce more number of offspring that can survive
Offspring with better traits that overcome competition are best suited for the environment
Variations are inherited from parents to offspring through genes
The best description on natural selection is
The reproductive success of the members of a population best adapted to an environment
It acts when the resources are unlimited
A change in the proportion of variations within a population
It follows Hardy-Weinberg principle
