1. Evolution is how living things slowly change over a very long time. These changes can make animals and plants different from their ancestors and sometimes make new kinds of living things.

2. Natural selection is when plants or animals with helpful traits are more likely to survive and have babies. Those helpful traits get passed on, so more babies have them later.

3. The theory of evolution says that living things come from earlier life and change little by little over many generations. Because of natural selection and other reasons, these small changes add up and make the wide variety of life we see today.
