process of human nature and personality have been constructed by natural and sexual selection.

The Earth is one of eight major planets and a host of minor planets that circle a fairly average‚ middle-aged‚ main-sequence star. It formed from the accretion of residual material from the gravitational collapse of the solar nebula that produced the Sun. Based on their specific distances from the Sun‚ the planets formed into groups of similar chemical compositions‚ sizes‚ and densities. The four smaller inner planets are of higher density and are composed of a mixture of rock and metal. In contrast

Over time the human race will become more and more adapted for survival on earth and this process is called evolution. Psychologists look at the behavioural aspects

In this essay I will explain how recent change of population has resulted in the recent increase of family diversity such as the family types found in the UK today such as the nuclear family‚ extended family‚ lone parents‚ reconstituted families‚ same sex families‚ beanpole families and cohabiting families.
