Fitness landscape: A Fitness landscape in biology and evolutionary theory is an abstract three-dimensional surface where each point represents a possible genotype and the height of the point represents the fitness of that genotype. A typical problem is that if a local maximum does not represent the optimum, this local maximum can only be left by losses. This is because an organism must first enter a sink in order to move to another maximum._____________Annotation: The above characterizations of concepts are neither definitions nor exhausting presentations of problems related to them.
