Assignment task: The world of biological organisms is "Malthusian". Which of the following most accurately describes the implications of this characteristic for the history of organisms?
1. Organisms will inevitably experience natural selection because the Second Law makes variation inevitable and competition in a crowded, finite world is likewise inevitable.
2. Organisms will experience natural selection - making them more efficient until they can evade the Second Law of Thermodynamics.
3. Organisms will change with time because their world will grow more and more crowded over time.
4. Organisms will evolve to be resistant to natural selection because kin-selected behaviors shield organisms from the Malthusian world.
