State

Evolution, per Unit 1's Bio 0055, is a change in a population's allele frequencies across generations, not a change within any organism's lifetime.

Show

A population where a beneficial allele's frequency rises across generations has evolved by this definition.

Watch for

Seeing a trait's frequency rise across generations does not mean individuals changed mid-life — each one keeps its own genotype.
