Two things are not so clear to me about this:

1. Since evolution is an event and not a substance does it makes sense of talking about it as having a final cause or should we instead look for the final causes the organisms which mutate have and how therefore natural selection pressupose those final ends that the things, and not the event itself of natural selection, have.

2. Does the mutation of genes is random in the sense of no being directed toward survival or they really have such final cause and happen exactly so that an organism survives. What is the cause and what is the effect?
