Natural selection will only cause evolution if there is enough genetic variation in a population. Before the discovery of Mendelian genetics, one common hypothesis was blending inheritance. But with blending inheritance, genetic variance would be rapidly lost, making evolution by natural selection implausible.
Theory & Principles. Evolutionary psychology begins with the idea that the source of organized functional complexity observed in all living organisms is evolution by natural selection. In its application to psychology, it entails the further uncontroversial assumption that the brain causes behavior.
