What are considered to be the drivers of evolution (agents of evolutionary change)?
Adi S.
Microevolution is the change in allele frequencies in a population. It may result from: - Mutation - Non-random mating - Genetic drift - Migration - Natural selection Random fluctuations and movement can lead to changes in allele frequencies. Individuals with adaptive traits are more likely to survive and reproduce, passing on their genes to the next generation. This can result in a population that is better adapted to its environment.
