So lets break it down. Lets say a Dog has a mutation that is beneficial, lets say a thumb, so now the creature can grasp thing, now this dog has to mate with many other dogs and hopefully that mutation will pass on all his offspring. Now if that trait has to continue wouldn't there be massive amount of incest as it is only his offspring with that genetic trait? So each new "species" is a product of lots and lots of incest?
What truth about him? He's a big deal evolutionary biologist.
Sorry, I'm not interested in teaching you evolution on a forum. Read other books then. And that's obviously not how inheritance work. You pass on your genes whether or not you marry within your family. Obviously.
