Charles Darwin wrote a book called "on the origin of species by means of natural selection" in it he tried to explain that in any population there are individuals that will be better at surviving then others because they may have better characteristics and therefore do better than those who do not have an advantageous characteristic. those who do better and survive will reproduce more and then they will produce more offspring with the trait. so, the traits will become increasingly common. his four major points are listed below:

  • inherited variation exists result of mutations and errors
  • more likely to survive natural selection
  • advantageous traits will spread and become common
  • fossil evidence and other sources of evolution

i hope this helps.... it is your choice if you chose to accept..... parts are a little far-fetched for me though but these are the facts from my class im taking. dont forget that darwins book has been under careful study by scientists and it has now been updated a tad. hoping this helps you :P
