The theory that macroevolution proceeds from gradual microevolutionary changes is often contrasted with punctuated equilibrium, which suggests that evolutionary change occurs rapidly during short periods of speciation, followed by long periods of stasis. While gradualism emphasizes continuous and slow changes over time, punctuated equilibrium posits that most evolutionary changes happen in bursts, with little change in species during long intervals. Both theories aim to explain the patterns observed in the fossil record and the diversity of life, but they offer different mechanisms for how macroevolution occurs.
