Evolution and Natural Selection
... If some plants grow taller than others and so are better able to avoid shading by others, they will produce more offspring. However, if the reason they grow tall is because of the soil in which their seeds happened to land, and not because they have the genes to grow tall, than no evolution will occ ...

Mechanisms of Evolution
... Phyletic speciation is a process of gradual change in a single population. The modern form of the organism differs from the original form so much that the two can be considered separate species. Phyletic speciation could be drawn as a line. Species A becomes species B, which becomes species C, etc. ...
