Mutations in an individuals germ line can be passed into progeny and if these mutations are beneficial then the allele frequency in the individuals population can change which is evolution. Over time and with many beneficial mutations against a favorable environment a population, or populations, most often geographically isolated, can change alleles so much that the two split populations can no longer interbreed and you have a new species; macro-evolution.

Which increases genetic variation?
Mutations
Relate genetic variation and mutations to each other?
mutations cause genetic variation, and vice-versa. If there is a genetic variation (or lack of one), then this can effect the severity of the mutation.
Breeders can increase the genetic variation by inducing what?
The introduction of animals into a breeding population that are unrelated will increase genetic variation.
