Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What are the Five Fingers of Evolution?
A
Mutation produces an new gene, Population can eat another, Population can move, Natural Selection and Mating produces a new population,
B
Mutation produces a new gene, population shrinks, population randomly disappears, population moves, and natural selection.
C
Mutation produces a new gene, population shrinks, population can move, natural selection, and mating produces a new population.
D
Mutation produces a new gene, population shrinks, population can move, natural selection, and population get eaten
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -There are five key mechanisms that cause a population, a group of interacting organisms of a single species, to exhibit a change in allele frequency from one generation to the next. These are evolution by: mutation, genetic drift, gene flow, non-random mating, and natural selection.

Detailed explanation-2: -From TEDEd, there’s a five finger trick for understanding and remembering the five processes-small population, non-random mating, mutations, gene flow, adaptation-that impact evolution (ie. the changes in the gene pool of a population from generation to generation).

Detailed explanation-3: -Mechanisms of evolution correspond to violations of different Hardy-Weinberg assumptions. They are: mutation, non-random mating, gene flow, finite population size (genetic drift), and natural selection.

Detailed explanation-4: -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-5: -These are the following: mutations, genetic recombination, gene flow or gene migration, genetic drift, natural selection.
