Natural selection.
Random processes are not part of the theory of evolution by natural selection.
The leading theory concerning the mechanism of evolution is natural selection.

Evolutionary psychology and to a lesser extent comparative psychology.
The four principles of natural selection (variation, inheritance, differential reproduction, and adaptation) are necessary for natural selection to occur because they describe the process by which certain traits are passed on to future generations based on their ability to help individuals survive and reproduce in their environment. Variation provides the raw material for natural selection, inheritance ensures that beneficial traits can be passed down, differential reproduction leads to the accumulation of advantageous traits in a population, and adaptation allows organisms to better survive and thrive in their environment over time.
natural selection (4 tenants) -genetic variation -overproduction of offspring -struggle for existence (competition) -differential survival and reproduction
Natural selection is the process by which certain traits that provide a reproductive advantage become more common in a population over time, leading to evolutionary change. Evolution is the overall change in a population's genetic makeup over successive generations, driven by mechanisms such as natural selection. In essence, natural selection is one of the primary mechanisms through which evolution occurs.
Social Darwinism is a belief system that uses the principles of natural selection to justify social inequality and competition between individuals and groups in society. It draws parallels between the survival of the fittest in the natural world and the "struggle" in human societies. While natural selection explains how traits evolve in a population over time based on their survival and reproductive success, social Darwinism extends these principles to human interactions and societal structures.
Cloning contradicts natural selection because it creates identical copies of organisms, rather than allowing for genetic diversity and variation necessary for species to evolve and adapt to changing environments. Natural selection relies on genetic variation for the process of evolution to occur, which is limited in cloned organisms.
