What is the mechanism for change in Charles Darwin's theory of evolution?

As it is no longer just Darwin's theory we know the mechanisms for change are mutation, gene flow, genetic drift and the one Darwin developed, natural selection.


Did Charles Mendel develop the theory of natural selection in the 1800 and not include a genetic explanation?

No. He, whoever he may have been, neither included nor considered such as far as anyone is aware. However Gregor Mendel did significant work on genetics, though he did cheat.

How does genetic variation support Natural Selection?

Genetic variation in itself does not 'support' natural selection: it is what natural selection acts upon.


Is Natural selection a source of genetic variation in a population?

No, natural selection works on that genetic variation presented to it.
