The modern theory of evolution includes competition, natural selection and the principle of Descent With Modification. According to the principle of (decent with modification OR common descent) all species – living and extinct – were derived from a common ancestor. CIRCL ONE. 5. Darwin argued that living things have been evolving on Earth for millions of years.

Genetic Drift Diagram: In a small population, an individual with particular alleles may have more descendants than another individual, by chance.
