Which of the following is not a step in the process of natural selection

A. Individuals who have favorable traits survive and reproduce more than those individuals lacking such traits.

B. Members of a population possess heritable variations.

C. People select which individuals breed and which ones do not.

D. Over multiple generations of reproducing, a larger proportion of the population will have those favorable traits and thus adaptation has occurred.

F. The population produces more offspring than the environment can support.

Natural selection is a process in which favorable or unfavorable environmental conditions determine the evolution of species, producing differences in their genotype over a long period of time.

As its name indicates, it is a natural selection, in which no intervention by people is contemplated, so that people cannot determine which individuals breed.

Natural selection implies that the characteristics on which the environment influences are inheritable, that there is genetic variability in the population and that the variability of these characteristics implies the ease of reproduction and survival capacity.

The other options do form part of natural selection, since they are based on the three premises of this process:

Inheritable characteristics.
Genetic variability.
The variability of characteristics influences reproduction and survival.
