Detailed explanation-1: -There are four principles at work in evolution-variation, inheritance, selection and time. These are considered the components of the evolutionary mechanism of natural selection.
Detailed explanation-2: -Natural selection is a simple mechanism that causes populations of living things to change over time. In fact, it is so simple that it can be broken down into five basic steps, abbreviated here as VISTA: Variation, Inheritance, Selection, Time and Adaptation.
Detailed explanation-3: -Natural selection is an inevitable outcome of three principles: most characteristics are inherited, more offspring are produced than are able to survive, and offspring with more favorable characteristics will survive and have more offspring than those individuals with less favorable traits.
Detailed explanation-4: -Principles of Natural Selection Natural selection is a primary mechanism that generates changes in the populations of living organisms over time. It has five main steps: variation, inheritance, selection, time, and adaptation.
