Sexual selection is a type of natural selection that explains the evolution of traits that increase an organism's ability to attract or compete for mates. This process can lead to the development of exaggerated physical or behavioral characteristics that may not be directly related to survival, but rather increase the probability of mating and reproduction.

An example of sexual selection is the bright plumage of male peacocks. The male's feathers are not necessary for survival, but they attract females during mating season, increasing the male's chances of mating and reproducing.
