Charles Darwin’s idea of evolution can be applied to this nursery rhyme. The nursery rhyme‚ Five Little Speckled Frogs‚ continues to repeat itself‚ however‚ each time there is one less frog. It can be said that the five little frogs represent their species‚ amphibians or frogs‚ whichever. They are described as speckled‚ as is the log‚ showing that the frogs are blending in when sitting on the log. They are content and satisfied on the log until one decides to jump off into a cool pool. It no longer

outlines the way that the modern organisms present today have descended from ancient ancestors in their simple life form. One of the first ideas about evolution that was not religious/spiritual came from Jean-Baptiste de Lamarck in 1809. The main concept behind his theory (Lamarck’s Theory) was not too different from Charles Darwin’s Theory of Evolution by Natural Selection which came later in 1859.

Admiral butterflies (genus Limenitis) are a particularly appealing system to address questions regarding wing pattern evolution and speciation. This genus is unusual among other butterflies in that mimicry has evolved multiple times and hybridization is frequent between wing pattern forms. An interesting fact of wing pattern evolution within this genus is the apparent differences between the largely stereotypic Paleartic fauna and the highly variable Nearctic forms of butterflies. Palearctic

Evolution as stated in Darwin’s novel the decent of man and selection in relation to sex states‚ “evolution is the process by which organisms change over time as a result of changes in heritable physical or behavioral traits allowing an organism to better adapt to its environment and in turn allowing specific species to survive and have more offspring.” By discovering the theory of evolution‚ Darwin was able to explain why species gain certain
