Evolution occurs into two of these process or sometimes even both: punctuated equilibria and gradualism. Punctuated equilibrium is the steady stable change or almost no change for a short period of time.

Gradualism, is the process by which a certain specie or creature undergo changes and variations in a limited and solely focusedly confined in long period of time.
