Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A selective agent is a factor that causes some individuals in a population to have higher reproductive success than others, leading to differential fertility. Selective pressure refers to the effect of the selective agent on the population, but it does not necessarily involve fertility specifically. Mutation agents and mutation rates are both related to genetic variation, but they do not directly cause differential fertility.
