clustered diversity, reproduction with variation and randomness

Next way to think about it but maybe too one to one/parallel? More multi-factorial and loopy? Clustered diversity results from descent with variation AND time (and randomness in the environment?). Descent with variation itself depends on randomness in the atoms/molecules, (ie mutation), as well as at other levels? And perhaps in turn causes additional variation in descent with variation?
