Very broad, big themes of biology, and including evolution.

So evolution is typically thought of in this very darwinian sense, which is what this question gets at.
00:24
And the idea is that evolution is driven by this concept of survival of the fittest.
00:45
And this is where natural selection comes in.
00:47
So if you have a trait that is beneficial, then you're more likely to survive, more likely to pass on that trait, and then the future generations of organisms are more likely to have that trait.
00:58
And this leads to two main themes, diversity and unity.
