Animal Extinction - the greatest threat to mankind In the final stages of dehydration the body shrinks‚ robbing youth from the young as the skin puckers‚ eyes recede into orbits‚ and the tongue swells and cracks. Brain cells shrivel and muscles seize. The kidneys shut down. Blood volume drops‚ triggering hypovolemic shock‚ with its attendant respiratory and cardiac failures. These combined assaults disrupt the chemical and electrical pathways of the body until all systems cascade toward death.

Greek thinker‚ Aristotle‚ around 300 BC. He classified animals according to their habitat – land‚ air‚ or water. However‚ this classification of Aristotle was misleading because animals that live on land include earthworms‚ mosquitoes‚ butterflies‚ rats‚ elephants‚ tigers etc. These animals do not resemble each other except that they share a common habitat. Similarly‚ all aquatic animals do not resemble each other. Therefore‚ a new system of classification was developed to classify the vast diversity

What is natural selection? Natural selection is one of the basic mechanisms of evolution‚ along with mutation‚ migration‚ and genetic drift. It is the process in which organisms better adapted to their environment manage to survive‚ meaning that they breed more offspring that have their genetic characters‚ while those less adapted tend to be eradicated. What are the names of the scientists who first proposed the theory? Charles Darwin began expressing his theory of natural selection in the late
