evolution means that a population undergoes changes in its gene frequencies over time.
mutations are always harmful.
natural selection only eliminates odd individuals.
evolution means that a population never has changes in its genetic frequencies.

Explanation:

• Evolution is defined as a change in the gene frequencies of a population over time.
• Mutations can be neutral or beneficial in some cases, not always harmful.
• Natural selection acts on traits that affect an organism's fitness, not just "odd" individuals.
• The statement that evolution means no change in genetic frequencies is the opposite of the correct definition.

Answer:

Evolution means that a population undergoes changes in its gene frequencies over time.
