Summary
[edit]DescriptionNatural selection and coevolution.svg |
English: Predator-prey coevolution causes favorable changes in both species. In this example, owls cause changes in mice and vice-versa. Light mice are easily hunted by all owls, so they don't survive to maturity. Therefore, they cannot pass down their genes, so their population declines. Since dark mice are harder to see, they are able to survive and pass on their genes. Owls with poor eyesight cannot see the dark mice, so they starve and their population declines. Since owls with good eyesight can effectively hunt dark mice they can eat and reproduce, passing down their genes. After some time the mouse and owl populations have changed from their original state. |
