  1. Mendelian genetics of the trait 
  2. Random mutations in the trait 
  3. The species in which the feature occurs
  4. The trait's compatibility with the environment

The trait's compatibility with the environment is handed down to the next generation with the highest frequency.

The correct answer is: The trait's compatibility with the environment
