Sentence examples for chances that evolution from inspiring English sources
Our results show how initial genetic diversity and population size promote the chances that evolution will save a bacterium population from extinction when confronted with an otherwise lethal antibiotic.
The chance that evolution can rescue the population from extinction depends on the relative rates of genetic change in the quantitative trait (i.e., Allee threshold) and of population decline (Gomulkiewicz and Holt 1995); hence the amount of genetic variance greatly impacts the ability to adapt and survive.
Yet critics have argued that these examples represent the exception and that evolution is not really predictable because too many chance events can knock it off course.

Given the chance, could you convince certain American politicians that evolution should be taught in schools?
Many biologists have argued that evolution depends on too many chance events to be repeatable.
Supporters of evolution generally respond by arguing that evolution is not based on "chance", but on predictable chemical interactions: natural processes, rather than supernatural beings, are the "designer".
