Comparison of Darwinism and Lamarckism Charles Darwin and Jean-Baptiste Lamarck had a scientific debate about the process of evolution. Darwin’s theory of evolution is by natural selection. Organisms change over time as a result of heritable physical and behavioural trait changes. The changes were due to the genes in the gene pool due to environmental pressures. For example: skull shape‚ fur colour‚ teeth shape‚ digestion of seal fat etc. The changes allow organisms to adapt better to the environment

The mid to late 1800s was a crucial time period for biological determinism because Charles Darwin came up with his idea of “Origin of the Species” in 1859 which Darwin discussed evolution and help set up the stage for ideas that promote heredity and biology as causes of criminal behavior. Although Darwin did not directly state that biological traits could determine human behavior‚ many people concluded
