Webbed feet evolve in ancestral ducks with each generation.

• Webbed feet are ideal the birds that are capable of swimming on water's surface order underwater.

• The trait of webbed feet in ducks appeared in ducks because of a chance mutation.
• A mutation is a change in the DNA sequence of an organism. Mutations can occur from errors in DNA replication during cell division and exposure to mutagens or a viral infection.
• While ducks were evolving webbed feet with each generation, most of the ducks had about the same amount of webbing on their feet as their parents.
• This mutation of webbed feet in ducks occurs over time. The development of this trait in ducks is a gradual process.
• The populations of ducks evolved webbed feet because the less successful ducks died without offspring.
