Some traits are favoured
Evolution is a term for changes and development that happen over time. For human evolution to take place, more people must be born than those who stay alive.
Humans must be different from each other, and the differences have to be passed on to their babies. Some traits are better for surviving in their surroundings. People with these traits have a better chance of growing up and having babies.
