Basically it is because they die and any mutations in germ lines, genetic recombinations and any beneficial variations die with them. Only populations evolve because the frequency of alleles in population gene pools change over time due to the selection of individuals who pass on these frequency changing traits to progeny.

Does an individual a population or a species evolve?
Populations evolve.
Explain why it is incorrect to say that individual organisms evolve?
It is not correct to say that individuals evolved because it is not possible for an individual to change drastically over their own timelife. Species have the faculty to evolve as a whole not as individual organisms.
The smallest biological until that can evolve over time is?
the smallest unit of evolution is population.
Which statement is more accurate to scientist the evolution of a single individual organism or the evolution of a whole species?
Single individuals are naturally selected, but populations ( can be whole species ) evolve. Any mutation happening in the germ line of an individual will die with him. Only his progeny can inherit said mutation and evolve. Evolution is the change in allele frequency over time in a population of organisms.
The smallest unit that can evolve is a?
Is a population. Consider the definition of evolution.Evolution is the change in allele frequency over time in a population of organisms.
Does an individual a population or a species evolve?
Populations evolve.
Do individual or population evolve?
a population adapts over time. an individual cannot adapt during its lifetime. it happens over many generations.
What level will umbreon evolve at?
it cant evolve... if you evolved it from evee then.... yeah you cant evolve it
Why is population the smallest unit of organism that can evolve?
Evolution is defined as a change in allele frequencies over time. Since individuals have only the set of alleles that they're born with, an individual cannot evolve. This leaves the population as the smallest unit that can evolve.
