Mutations and natural selection cause adaptations. Mutations can cause instant adaptations, while natural selection is the process by which adaptations occurs over a series of generations.
Adaptations are changes or processes of changes by which an organism or species becomes better suited for its environment.
<span>During the development of
a gamete, the two alleles of the P generation separate. Each gamete carries one allele from each
parent which randomly pairs in the F1 generation. This mechanism repeats when
F1 plants cross and yield F2 plants. The
outcome of the F2 generation would then have new combinations of alleles which
can be different compared to the preceding generations.</span>
