A good design is sufficiently flexible to be able to handle the natural drift that will occur over time in hardware and software technology, as well as in user scenarios and requirements.

优秀的设计具有足够的灵活性，以便能够处理，随着时间的流逝，将发生在硬件和软件技术，以及用户场景和需求上的自然的变化。

Natural selection will preserve sequences with vital functions, but the rest of the genome will change because of drift.

自然选择将保存重要功能的基因序列，但是其他基因会因为漂变而被改变。

Genetic drift can even counteract natural selection.

基因漂变甚至可以抵消自然选择。

What we learn from these areas is precisely how evolution has acted to sculpt bodies, but it still does so using randomly-generated genetic variation and good old natural selection (and yes, Larry Moran, genetic drift also plays a role).

Modern evolutionary biology as we understand it, which is to say variation via genetic drift, mutations, duplications combined with the pruning filter of natural selection, certainly explains a great deal.
