Zusammenfassung

Nach dem Darwin-Prinzip überleben jeweils die Individuen, die der Umwelt am besten angepaßt sind; die entsprechende Spezies überlebt. Da nur über eine ausreichende Anzahl von Individuen die Arterhaltung gewährleistet werden kann, zumal die Evolution durch das Überleben von zufällig besser angepaßten Individuen voranschreitet, kommt dem Fortpflanzungssystem zwangsläufig einen zentrale Stellung zu.
