How the gradualism model of evolution differs from the punctuated equilibrium model of evolution?
The gradualism model of evolution states that change occurs gradually over time. On the other hand, the punctuated equilibrium model states that change occurs suddenly or rapidly.
Can you doubt evolution?
You can doubt evolution and anything else you want. The better question is if you should doubt evolution, or if you can reasonably doubt evolution in light of science. A lot of aspects concerning evolution are backed by rather sound science. That isn't to say that the theory of evolution explains everything. The earliest textbooks on the topic said that you had to take parts of it by faith. That is no different than believing what religion has to say about it. You do have to ask yourself how to reconcile the laws saying that matter and energy cannot be created nor destroyed with the Big Bang Theory. Since if there was nothing, then you must ask where all the "something" suddenly come from.

If genetic mutation almost always leads to sterilization and death then how can evolution be true?
Genetic mutation does not always lead to sterilization as you point out. This however is not the way evolution happens. Evolution occurs mainly through small adaptive changes over a long period of time that are not mutations. Evolution does not happen suddenly.
What function does mutation commonly mess up?
suddenly drastic change in the function of an organ of the body

What term describes changes that occur within a species?
Evolution happens over a long period of time, so nothing suddenly changes. Unless you're talking about pokemon. I believe you're thinking of divergent evolution.
What is the main way that a new species form?
By the theory of evolution, new species form through the process of natural selection. This process most often starts with a random mutation in the genome (a random gene suddenly changes or becomes a "mutation"). This mutation either helps, or hinders the new animal (or mutant if you will hehe). If it helps them survive better than the older species, then this new mutant species will become more abundant. If not, than the new species will die off. This process does not happen all at once though, it usually takes a generous amount of mutations and thousands of years for this to happen.
