What Did Darwin Propose to Be the Driving Force of Evolution

Question

What did Darwin propose to be the driving force of evolution in nature?
A) Selection
B) Migration
C) Emigration
D) Inbreeding
E) Random mating

Accepted Answer

Darwin proposed that natural selection is the driving force of evolution. He suggested that organisms with advantageous traits are more likely to survive and reproduce, passing on those traits to their offspring. Over time, this process leads to the gradual changes in species that we refer to as evolution. Migration, emigration, inbreeding, and random mating can all play a role in shaping evolution to some degree, but natural selection is the primary mechanism that drives it forward.
