Natural selection and genetic drift both result in a change in the frequency of alleles in a population, so both are mechanisms of evolution. Genetic drift causes evolution by random chance due to sampling error, whereas natural selection causes evolution on the basis of fitness.

Natural selection is the process through which populations of living organisms adapt and change. Through this process of natural selection, favorable traits are transmitted through generations. Natural selection can lead to speciation, where one species gives rise to a new and distinctly different species
