Environmental change can cause common traits in a population to change over time through the process of natural selection.
Natural selection is a fundamental mechanism of evolution proposed by Charles Darwin. It operates on the principle that individuals within a population exhibit variation in their traits. When environmental conditions change, certain traits may become advantageous or disadvantageous for survival and reproduction.
