rushwr · Answer

Mutations are the changes in the genetic material, DNA of an organism . Mutation occured in genes can be transmitted to the future generations but mutations occur in somatic cell cannot be inherited to the future generation. Mutations causes variation. Mutations are the major source of genetic variation.  Mutation effect the normal functioning of an organism. This may cause various effects. Both harmful , lethal or useful effects. 
The useful mutations become very advantageous during the struggle of existence. These characteristics ( mutated or not) Are subjected to natural selection, where advantageous or more surviving favored characteristics are chosen. Natural selection works on genetic variation within a population and leads to evolution by selecting the favored/ advantageous characters out. :)

rushwr · Answer

Just add to the natural selection 
- Mention that advantageous characters are survived while harmful ones are eliminated.
