Evolution works slowly over hundreds of thousands of years. Mutations in the human genome occur in a parent and are passed onto offspring. These offspring also mutate, although only a few tiny, probably unnoticeable mutations occur per generation. As time passes, over the course of hundreds of thousands of years, the mutations will eventually lead to a great change that will make the new offspring a new breed / species entirely.

What is evolution and how does it works?

Evolution is the process by which species of organisms change over generations through the inheritance of genetic traits, leading to the development of new species. It works through mechanisms such as natural selection, genetic drift, and gene flow, which drive changes in the genetic makeup of populations over time in response to environmental pressures.

Are genitics and evolution same?

No. Genetics is the study of how characteristics are inherited. Evolution is the study of how species originate and change through time. Evolution only works on inherited characteristics ie genetic varoiation, so the two subjects are intimately related, but they are not the same.
