The theory that all species of life have evolved over time from common ancestors through the process of natural selection
View source
Natural selection
The process by which biological traits become either more or less common in a population based on their relative fitness
View source
Genes control many of the characteristics of organisms and can be passed to offspring
View source
Sexual reproduction 
Gives rise to an enormous amount of variation
View source
Favourable characteristics
Give an organism an advantage in survival and reproduction
View source
Survival of the fittest
Organisms that survive in a world of competition are those best adapted to their environment
View source
Natural selection
