Darwin is associated with the theory of evolution by natural selection. As he gave a major contribution to understand the evolution process, he is called the father of evolution.
• Evolution is the gradual process that is based on natural selection. It occurs when there is natural change in the characters of a species in the coming generations. The process of evolution is increased with the help of mutation.
• According to the Charles Darwin theory of natural selection, the limitation of natural resources results in competition between the individuals of same species or different species. As the resources are limited, the species cannot grow exponentially. The species that are competitively superior and are able to adapt themselves better in extreme environmental conditions will survive. The competitively superior species will produce more progeny than others. These fit individuals are said to be selected by nature that leads to evolution.
