What is evolution?
- Evolution is the change in the heritable characteristics of biological populations over successive generations.
- It happens when individuals in a population vary in their genetic characteristics and in the numbers of their surviving offspring.
- Mutation introduces new genetic variation, and processes such as genetic drift, gene flow, and natural selection result in some genetic variants becoming more or less common over time.
