Human evolution is the evolutionary process leading up to the appearance of modern humans. While it began with the last common ancestor of all life‚ the topic usually covers only the evolutionary history of primates‚ in particular the genus Homo‚ and the emergence of Homo sapiens as a distinct species of hominids (or "great apes"). The study of human evolution involves many scientific disciplines‚ including physical anthropology‚ primatology‚ archaeology‚ linguistics‚ evolutionary psychology‚ embryology

Evolution of Life The earth is about 4.54 billion years old and it is evolving throughout its lifetime from a place with volcanoes‚ serve thunderstorms and limited oxygen. The beginning of the life of earth is occurred due to a process that has set a sequence most practical events towards the foundation of where life actually formed so many years ago. The chemical evolution practical process created inorganic molecules to form organic molecules. Slowly this process of evolution created the foundation

Essay on Evolution There are many mechanisms that lead to evolutionary change. One of the most important mechanism in evolution is natural selection which is the differential success in the reproduction of different phenotypes resulting from the interaction of organisms with their environment. Natural selection occurs when a environment makes a individual adapt to that certain environment by variations that arise by mutation and genetic recombination. Also it favors certain traits in a individual

Evolution is the change in the inherited characteristics of biological populations over successive generations. Evolutionary processes give rise to diversity at every level of biological organisation‚ including species‚ individual organisms and molecules such as DNAand proteins.[1]All life on earth is descended from a last universal ancestor that lived approximately 3.8 billion years ago. Repeated speciation and the divergence of life can be inferred from shared sets of biochemical and morphological

Evolution of Birds It has become widely accepted that birds have evolved from reptiles in the Jurassic period and are the living descendants of a group of dinosaurs called theropods. Birds share hundreds of unique skeletal features with dinosaurs. Over the years‚ birds have evolved in a wide variety of forms‚ from flightless and aquatic to flying animals. Due to poor fossil records‚ some information regarding the evolution of birds are based on theories but during the last 30 years‚ the evolutionary
