The basic idea behind biological evolution is that all new species derive and diverge from shared ancestors.
Darwin defined biological evolution as: “descent with modification”. This means that over time and succeeding generations, those traits that provide reproductive advantage become more common within a population.
Evolution by natural selection acts when heritable variation leads to differential reproductive success (fitness).
The main feature or property of evolving systems is their ability to reproduce. Evolution is meaningless without reproduction.
