What is the relationship between mutation, natural selection, and adaptation?

Answer 1

Couldn't make it one sentence.

Positive traits spread more widely through natural selection, while random gene changes caused by radioactivity result in mutations.

Adaptation is the process by which natural selection functions for a species specifically more in a new habitat. Natural selection permits positive mutation to become more common.

Mutations create genetic diversity, natural selection acts on this diversity, favoring traits that enhance survival and reproduction, leading to adaptation over generations.
