500 1. overpopulation 2. inherited variation 3. struggle to survive 4. successful reproduction What are the 4 parts of natural selection?	500 A population of bacteria might develop an adaption through natural selection. Most bacteria are killed by the chemicals in antibiotics. But a few of the bacteria have an adaption that makes them naturally resistant to, or not killed by, the antibiotics is Antibiotic are supposed to kill bacteria. But sometimes bacteria are not killed by the medicine. Why?	500 when the population can not longer interbreed and produce fertile offspring A population of organism is separated into two groups for many years. When would the two populations be considered two different species?	500 You get 500 FREE points! CONGRATS! Do not freak out!
