Selection's Limits: No Perfect Organism, Not All Evolution Adaptive
This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.
State
Selection acts only on existing variation and cannot produce a perfect organism; other forces, especially drift per Bio 1757, can change fit without improving.
Show
Genes close together on a chromosome are inherited together, so a beneficial allele can drag along a harmful linked allele.
Watch for
Evolution has no goal — several forces change allele frequencies, and only natural selection consistently produces adaptation.
