This selection and variation happens more gradually. It is hard to notice over a short period of time. The change is slow, constant and consistent. In punctuated equilibrium, the changes come in spurts. There are periods wherein a huge change occurs and there are also periods with very little change. The mutation is at random. Genetic drift is the change in the frequency of a gene variant due to a random sampling of organisms.
Predicting is when you are guessing but with evidence and previous knowledge. Guessing is when you are just guessing randomly ♀️ sorry the explanation for guessing is kind of bad
