Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Individual organisms don’t evolve. Populations evolve. Because individuals in a population vary, some in the population are better able to survive and reproduce given a particular set of environmental conditions.

Detailed explanation-2: -Evolution reflects the adaptations of organisms to their changing environments and can result in altered genes, novel traits, and new species.

Detailed explanation-3: -Organisms cannot evolve adaptations in anticipation of future events. Evolution is a continuous process. Natural selection is not the same as evolution. Natural selection is the primary working mechanism for evolution.
