As we currently understand it, evolution happens if:

- There are populations of organisms reproducing with variation

- Those variations are inherited by offspring

- More offspring is produced than can comfortably subsist in the habitat

- Offspring therefore compete with one another for resources and mating opportunities

- Variant inherited traits affect their ability to compete.
