[[File:Microevolutionmacroevolution.PNG|alt=evolution darwin theory|right|thumb|300px|Microevolution involves changes to species within similar types of species. In contrast, macroevolution is accumulation of microevolutionary changes over long periods of time and may involve emergence of new species. The causes of a new species could be due to design, nature, or a combination of both.]]
'''Microevolution''', broadly defined, is the inevitable small-scale changes in [[allele]] frequencies in a population within the same species. Under this broad definition, this change in overall allele frequencies occurs with every birth or death of a member of the species. In other words, some generations of people might be taller than the last or shorter than the last based on the number of individuals who happen to have the "tall" gene. Microevolution does not involve changing from one [[kind]] to another, and it does not create new kinds.
