(Lamarck’s Theory) was not too different from Charles Darwin’s Theory of Evolution by Natural Selection which came later in 1859. Both theories suggest that varying traits between individuals of the same species are passed down to offspring and hence‚ organisms evolve into the versions we see today. There are four main factors that drive the evolutionary process: Natural Selection Mutation Migration Genetic Drift Natural Selection: this is the process

Wallace went on to propose the evolutionary theory of natural selection (independent of Charles Darwin) in the midst of his 8-year stay in Southeast Asia. Very simply put‚ natural selection means that the species with the more favourable adaptations will survive in the long term whereas the ones with the less favourable traits will become extinct. In March 1854‚ the
