Scientific theories must have testable predictions. Predictions are made based on observations and then experiments can be done to test the theoretical predictions. The experiments will either verify or falsify the predictions made. Here we are going to discuss the hypotheses of phyletic gradualism and punctuated equilibrium. The pattern of evolution can be described as happening gradually‚ over time‚ as in the hypothesis of phyletic gradualism or by punctuated equilibrium. In the theory of
