Ritual Bronzes gained in popularity and importance during the Shang and Zhou dynasties (which became known as the Bronze Age in China), when bronze technology and metalworking became more complex. Bronze cups and other vessels were used for ritual sacrifices and ceremonies. Ritual bronzes during the Shang dynasty grew more intricate and larger. During the Zhou dynasty, the taotie (animal mask) motifs that were so prevalent during the Shang dynasty faded in favor of other decorations such as spikes.

Examples of evolution and adaptation are present in every organism on Earth. Organisms adapt and change according to their surroundings. As their surroundings change, they change, or they die. These are the basic concepts of evolution. Organisms will adapt to survive and thrive, or they will die out. The species alive today as a result have evolved and have undergone much change from their ancestors. Invertebrate species are just some examples of this in action, but if one was to look at the specific species of invertebrates and analyze their adaptations and traits, the evidence of evolution would be quite surprising. An astounding example of this in action is a little insect known as the honey bee.
