What happens is a mutation occurs or there is genetic trait which makes you mo betta at shooting a bow and arrow. Like really fawking strong shoulders..freakishly strong. Then you kill lots of animals and live and pass on your genes while chicken arms boy dies because he couldn't hold his bow up as long and missed animals. So, his genes die with him.
Take the fish. There is a mutation that allows some air to be processed in the gills (ie...primative lungs) so the mud fish can stay out of water longer, not hold his breath longer. Although, that could be a trait selected for as well. Well, lungfish lives through droughts and gillfish dies. Now you have a primitive lung passed on...and so on.
Need to see over tall grass to avoid the big toothed predator...tall neck horse is going to live while short neck dies. Necks get longer as more of the longer necked ones live and shorter necked ones die.
Yeah, that's pretty much exactly what I said.

Not really. Close, but no cigar. Its like saying if you drive a V8 car around the same track alot you'll get faster. However, there is a limit to how fast you can drive a perfect lap. All the cars have a v8, the same tires, and suspension. So, there is no real advantage between cars outside of practice. No changes occur. No evolution occurs.
Evolution is a V12, better suspension, and stickier tires.
