Answer:

Mutations are random, but natural selection is not random. Different mutations can cause the same phenotype. Evolution repeats itself in different environments.

Step-by-step explanation:

Introduced by Charles Darwin, natural selection is the idea that a species adapts to its environment through changes in its genetics. Natural selection is not random, though the genetic changes (or mutations) that are filtered by natural selection do come about randomly.
