1 The genetic make-up of apopulation gradually changes from one generation to the next.
2 Living organisms change overtime.
3 Each species produces many moreoffspring than can survive long enough to reproduce. The offspringthat do survive contain genes that are inherited from theparents.
4 There is variation among themembers of a species. Some of this variation is geneticallydetermined and so can be passed on to future generations.
5 Some individuals have genes thatincrease their chances for survival and reproduction. Theseindividuals are more likely to reproduce and pass on their genes,causing their genes to become more common in the nextgeneration.
6 There is a struggle for existenceamong the members of a population.
