Sentence examples for evolving fitness from inspiring English sources

Females could potentially respond to male mating harassment either by physically resisting male mating attempts [18] [21], or by evolving fitness tolerance to the damage inflicted from extra matings [3], [6], [7], [22].

Being quantum mechanical observers having different clocks, they generate perpetually evolving fitness landscape.

Note that local group selection is also the ultimate mechanism that keeps the system coexistent in the first place – its effect through evolved fitness evenness is an extra component of ecological robustness in the Metabolically Coupled Replicator System.

This exploratory paper does not provide evidence that B. subtilis, or any other microbe, is intelligent or is playing an evolved, fitness-enhancing memory strategy.

Among such newly evolved, fitness-increasing functions will be those that increase replication fidelity which, in turn, allows further increase in the amount of encoded information.
