Detailed explanation-1: -In generation after generation, advantageous traits help some individuals survive and reproduce. And these traits are passed on to greater and greater numbers of offspring.
Detailed explanation-2: -Offspring are a random genetic recombination of all of the traits, good and bad, from both of their parents. The advantageous traits eventually become more prevalent in nature because those offspring who randomly inherited the advantageous trait are more successful in surviving and producing offspring of their own.
Detailed explanation-3: -The individuals with the helpful traits will leave more offspring in the next generation than their peers, since the traits make them more effective at surviving and reproducing.
Detailed explanation-4: -Natural selection is a mechanism of evolution. Organisms that are more adapted to their environment are more likely to survive and pass on the genes that aided their success. This process causes species to change and diverge over time.
