Does natural selection always result in evolution?  In your answer, be sure to define natural selection and evolution.  If you answer yes, explain why this is the case.  If you answer no, explain why and describe a condition under which you can have natural selection with no resultant evolution

Genetic Evolution

Sexual reproduction produces distinct population variations. Heredity determines the traits and qualities to be passed down to the progeny. Over time, this variation within-species is also affected by the process of human evolution. The study of how genetic variation leads to evolutionary changes is known as genetic evolution. If a trait helps an organism to survive and reproduce, it is more likely to be passed down the generations. It is rare that such traits result in a completely distinct set of traits in descendants than the ancestral population; this can result in the emergence of a new species.
