Answer:

Evolution implies an overall gradual development which is both ordered and sequential. It can be said to be the development of the differentiated organisms from the pre-existing less differentiated organisms over the course of time. The major factors that cause evolution are:

Natural selection: Natural selection may be defined as the process by which the organisms which are better adaptive to a particular kind of environment tends to survive, leading in the elimination of the organism less adaptive to that environment. These organisms are naturally selected and reproduce to pass on their genetic qualities suitable to that environment making their species best suitable to that particular environment.

Gene flow: Gene flow refers to the movement of alleles from one population to another as a result of interbreeding between members of two populations. The random introduction of new alleles into the recipient population and their removal from the donor population affects the allele frequency of both population and leads to increased genetic variation.

Genetic drift: The process of change in the genetic composition of a population due to random events rather than by natural selection, resulting in changes in allele frequencies over time. Drift is observed most strongly in small populations and results in changes that need not be adaptive.

Mutation: Mutations are the sudden changes that takes place in the DNA sequence of an organism. These are the permanent changes that can be either induced or occur naturally leading to the variation in the populations.
