More Information, links and Definitions

EVOLUTION : Evolution is the change in the characteristics of a species over several generations. Or a change over time in simpler terms.

GENE FLOW : Gene flow is when genetic material is transfered from one population to another.

ADAPTATION : Adaptation is the biological mechanism by which organisms adjust to new environments or to changes in their current environment.

More about the different types of mutation HERE

More about adaptation with animals HERE

NATURAL SELECTION : Natural selection is the process whereby organisms better adapted to their environment tend to survive and produce more offspring.
