introduced to evolution by way of Natural Selection‚ Artificial Selection‚ and Sexual Selection. The process of evolution is seen in species that undergo changes over long periods of time by adapting characteristics which will better suit them to their environments. By utilizing a combination of both hypothetical imagery and scientific observation‚ Darwin has developed a persuasive argument intended to shed light on the origins of life.
