About this document
Understanding Evolutionary Mechanisms by Jesmin Shumi is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Evolution is any change in the inherited characteristics of a population over generations. The main mechanisms that drive evolution are natural selection, mutation, genetic drift, and gene flow. Natural selection occurs as individuals with traits better suited to their environment are more likely to survive and pass on their genes. Mutation introduces new genetic variations within populations that natural selection can then act upon.
