b. Nonrandom mating
c. Assortative mating
d. Mutations
Mutations are the raw material of evolutionary change, introducing genetic variation required for natural selection. Genetic drift, Nonrandom mating and Assortative mating, while part of the evolutionary process, are not the 'raw materials'.
The raw material of evolutionary change is mutations. Mutations are a change in a DNA sequence that can lead to different phenotypic traits. The DNA sequence changes can come in various forms such as deletions, insertions, or substitutions in the base pair sequence. These Mutations are a source of genetic variation, which is crucial for the process of natural selection. Without mutations, evolution could not occur because there would be no variation for natural selection to act upon. Genetic drift, Nonrandom mating and Assortative mating are mechanisms of evolution, not raw materials.
