The structure adjustment scenario, which only focuses on the ecological risk for construction, was less fitted.
When Richard is invited to give a talk to other physicians, he "intentionally wears a jacket that is less fitted and looks more conventional" because he does not want his style to detract from the credibility of his presentation.
When the natural world is your guide, then it is only logical, only natural, that those who are less fit should be allowed to move on -- and if a little nudge in that direction is needed, then so be it.
Those runners, who tend to be less fit, are hurt even more by a fast start, he added.
The more offspring one has, particularly at one time, the more likely that some of them, at least, will be less fit.
Indeed, in large microbial consortia, our findings suggest that low-abundance organisms may not necessarily be less fit and, potentially, they could be essential to the fast growth rate of the community.
Subsequently, strains carrying these elements may be less fit to survive in a competitive environment with faster growing wild type strains once antibiotic therapy is discontinued.
Furthermore, Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains resistant to rifampicin and INH might be less fit than drug susceptible strains and therefore lead to longer duration of disease with less mortality [15].
