Evolution is the theory that everything descends from a common ancestor, and that all life is related. Charles Darwin created this theory he also thought that all living things developed from non-living things or that complex creatures came from more simplistic ancestors. Random gene mutations that are in a organism`s genetic code occur, but it`s a good thing because it can be used for good. This process is called natural selection these mutations are passed on to future generations. Over time as the mutations accumulate the organism changes to a totally different creature. Darwin's theory of evolution is a slow process. Here`s what darwin wrote : "…Natural selection acts only by taking advantage of slight successive variations she can never take a great and sudden leap, but must advance by short and sure though slow steps."
Creation is the belief that everyone and everything is created by someone whose existence is yet to be unknown. There are different types of creationism from the resources that were given to me there are only 6. They are young earth creationism, Old earth creationism, Gap creationism, Day-age creationism, Progressive creationism, and Theistic evolution. These types of creationism are in the christian religon. There are other religons as well for example Hinduism, Islamic, and Jewish they are all in the category of creationism, but with different opinions on it.
