Natural selection drives the adaptations seen in modern humans from "summary" of Evolutionary Psychology by David M. Buss
The process of natural selection acts as a potent force in shaping the adaptations that we see in modern humans. Over the course of countless generations, individuals who possess advantageous traits are more likely to survive and reproduce, passing on those beneficial traits to their offspring. This fundamental principle of evolution results in the gradual accumulation of traits that enhance an individual's ability to survive and reproduce in their particular environment. One key aspect of natural selection is the concept of reproductive success. Individuals who are better suited to their environment are more likely to survive long enough to reproduce, thus passing on their advantageous traits to future generations. This continual process leads to the spread of beneficial traits throughout a population, ultimately driving the adaptations that we observe in modern humans. Anothe...
