Microevolution

Microevolution is when small changes in living things happen over time. It's like a puzzle, where every piece and color is important. Some of the pieces are traits like fur color or tail length and the colors represent how often the traits appear in a population. Over time, some pieces may come together to create bigger changes that can help animals, plants, or bugs survive better in their environment. This is microevolution.
