Evolution is the adaption of organisms to their environment. Change in genes is evolution which causes adaption via natural election.

What is the meaning of evolution?

Evolution is generally defined as "a series of changes over a period of time, resulting in something new arising". In particular, biological evolution is defined as "the change in frequency of alleles in a population's gene pool over a period of time".


Mutations are not able to cause things to evolve because?

Whoa. Mutations usually cause things to evolve, depending on the gene which is mutated. Mutations are changes in the genetic material of an organism resulting in changes in the gene pool (if the mutated traits are passed on). If the mutated gene is a desirable/advantageous one, then the chances that it willbe passed on to future generations is increased. In this process, which occurs over a period of time, old genes may be lost in the gene pool, resulting in evolution. I don't see how it doesn't cause evolution.

Why must an adaptation be inheritable if it is to cause a population to evolve?

If an adaptation were non-inheritable it could not cause the population to evolve because it would not be part of the populations gene pool.
