What is evolution ? In your own words.

The timely effects of natural selection. Otherwise known as the survival of the fittest. Evolution, from what I’ve learned, is the simple basis of an organism adapting in an environment and is shaped by it through time and evolution by natural selection.

Ok this is my opinion also I’m gonna give examples. So evolution is kinda like how they said we evolved from apes right? So if we evolved from apes think about how long it for them to finally transition into a human so that is how you can word it also transition. So I think the best way I can word evolution is something evolving from something else like a flower for example a flower first starts out as a seed and then it start’s growing/evolving into a flower. So basically how I would word it is something evolving into something! I hope this helped I know this isn’t a definition but a meaning of evolution have a great day!
