Gradual changes lead to new species from "summary" of The Origin of Species (Deluxe Library Binding) (Annotated) by Charles Darwin

The process by which new species arise is a result of gradual changes accumulating over time. These changes, often imperceptible in the short term, can lead to significant differences in the long run. It is through this gradual transformation that new species emerge, distinct from their ancestors. These changes can occur in various ways, such as through natural selection or genetic mutations. Natural selection, a key mechanism in the process of evolution, favors traits that enhance an organism's chances of survival and reproduction. Over many generations, these advantageous traits become more prevalent in a population, leading to the formation of new species. Genetic mutations, on the other hand, introduce new variations into a population's gene pool. While most mutations are neutral or harmful, some can be beneficial and ...
