How does Natural Selection cause evolution of a species?
Expert Solution

Step 1 CCC
Decent which change or modification is a basic idea of evolution. Literally the term evolution means rolling or unfolding to reveal modifications. Evolution briefly means that generation after generation offspring of a species modify in accordance with environmental requirements and the accumulation of these modifications to a long series of generations turn into better organised as more complex new species.
