    believe evolution is from a monkey turning into guy after thousands of years. But there is more to it than that. People all over the world have found evidence explaining the origin of man and other species. But some believe in a book called the Bible‚ the holy book for Christianity. They believe that God created everything out of thin air and made everything in “7” days. But I believe that Creationism is wrong and that evolution is the science behind the origin of man. Evolution was first

    Describe Darwin’s theory of evolution by natural selection. Darwin’s theory of evolution by natural selection is a species adaptation to its environment and the environment’s impact to the species over time. Traits that benefit the survival of the species within a specific environment pass to offspring because members of the population that have the beneficial traits are more likely to survive and reproduce. In order for a change to be evolutionary it must be genetic and on a hereditary level

    Charles Darwin and the Theory of Evolution Charles Darwin is widely known as the father of evolutionary biology. It is believed that no one has influenced our knowledge of life on Earth as much as he has. His theory of evolution by natural selection‚ which has unified the theories of the life sciences‚ explained where all the diverse living things came from and how they have been able to adapt to their specific environments. His theory reconciled a wide range of evidence to make sense of the

    Adaptive Radiation     Adaptive radiation occurs most often in new environment with a variety of different unfilled niches so that plants and animals that are not adapted to those areas can exploit the resources in the respective niches. Once individuals begin exploiting the new niches‚ mutations that will benefit the species will spread throughout the population via natural selection giving the owners an overwhelming advantage over others without the mutation and throughout evolutionary time

    the new anglerfish species. I’m pleased you’ve taken an interest‚ but I don’t think you understand some of the concepts you brought up. So I want to help you understand how evolution works‚ and better understand how creatures like the Lasiognathus dinema evolved. I first want to address Charles Darwin’s concept on evolution. You stated that only the strongest and most important species survive. While strength is an important variable in survival‚ an organism’s fitness is not related to always related

    result of convergent evolution because cetaceans have evolved to be more equipped for an aquatic lifestyle. Rather‚ it is a remnant feature of life on land (Rose‚ 2001). Despite this evidence‚ other scientists argue that tooth morphology of ancient cetaceans is not consistent with artiodactyls. Instead‚ tooth and some skull features are more similar to the carnivorous mesonychians. However‚ this morphology is argued by opponents to be most likely a result of convergent evolution (Rose‚

    Four Forces Of Evolution

    The four forces of evolution are natural selection‚ mutation‚ genetic drift‚ and gene flow. Natural selection has to do with adaptation. It preaches that those species that have better adapted to the environment with various traits and just simply their behavior‚ will be stronger and therefore able to survive for longer periods of time and allow for their genes to continuously be passed on to the next generations of that species. Mutations have to do with adding‚ subtracting‚ and deleting of nitrogen

    Evolution of Skin Pigmentation due to UV Levels and Genes Introduction Identification of a person has long been related to the color of their skin‚ as skin color is the defining measure of races. There are multiple variations in skin color throughout the globe‚ with the differences in outward appearance ranging from dark to light. But what exactly has caused this to occur? What is the underlying event that has led to so much variation in the pigmentation of a person? What selection pressures

    Evolution is defined as a slow and steady change in the same species to help their survival. There were two theories on this type of evolution: Lamarck’s theory of acquired characteristics and Darwin theory on natural selection. Both scientists agree that evolution is caused by the need of survival. Natural selection is the process by which biological traits of an organism become less in common in a population over time. This process can even result in a different species. Polar bears have gone under
