To extend on this enter Hardy weinberg equilibrium model
In order for evolution not to happen
1. mutation is not occurring
2. natural selection is not occurring
3. the population is infinitely large
4. all members of the population breed
5. all mating is totally random
6. everyone produces the same number of offspring
7. there is no migration in or out of the population
Lehsyrus Darwin is outdated, modern evolutionary biology please.
