NATURAL SELECTION IS BASED ON THE FOLLOWING EXCEPT:
1) individuals who survive longer tend to leave more offspring then those who die young
2)individuals adapt to their environment and thereby, evolve.

I choose 1) since i think the fittest emphasizes reproducing offspring rather than surviving. Also I didnt know where 2) is wrong?
Could anyone help? Thanks

Is that due to the fact that individuals can't evolve but only be selected?

Adapting is the premise of natural selection.
