Natural selection contributes to the basis of Darwi’s


Theory of Evolution. One of the core tenets of Darwin’s
theory is that more offspring are always produced for
species that can possibly survive. Yet, no two offspring
are perfectly alike. As a result, through random
mutation and genetic drift, over time offspring develop
new traits and characteristics. Over time beneficial
traits and characteristics that promote survival will be
kept in the gene pool while those that harm survival
will be selected againts. Therefore, this natural
selection ensures that a species gradually improves
itself over an extended duration of time. On the other
hand, as a species continues to ‘improve’ itself. It
branches out to create entirely new species that are no
longer capable of reproducing together.
