Charles Darwin proposed that evolution could be explained by the differential reproductive success of organisms that resulted from their naturally occurring variation. Darwin called this process (a) coevolution (b) convergent evolution (c) natural selection (d) artificial selection (e) homoplasy
Why are alternative scientific theories to evolution not taught in public school? a. more theories would confuse students b. there are no viable scientific alternatives c. it is against the law d. alternative scientific theories are suppressed by the science establishment
Among Natural Selection, Blending Theory, Pangenesis, Cell Theory, Prefomation, and Lamarck’s Theory these concepts what theories are accepted until now?
Can you please help me with this question The theory of evolution was controversial when it was first proposed in 1859, yet within 20 years virtually every working biologist had accepted evolution as the explanation for the diversity of life. Explain in at least 50 words why.
. Some scientists vigorously rejected Darwin’sideas when On the Origin of Species was published. Richard Owen (1860), perhaps the mostrespected biologist in England, wrote (amongmany other objections): “Are all the recognisedorganic forms of the present date, so differentiated, so complex, so superior to conceivableprimordial simplicity of form and structure,as to testify to the effects of Natural Selectioncontinuously operating through untold time?Unquestionably not. The most numerous livingbeings … are precisely those which offer suchsimplicity of form and structure, as best agrees…with that ideal prototype from which…vegetableand animal life might have diverged.” Howmight Darwin, or you, argue against Owen’slogic?
The theory of evolution has long been a part of the study of biology in its attempt to explain the diversity of different life forms. Why do you think has it not been elevated as a Law?
ONE OF THE STATEMENTS OF EVOLUTION THEORY OF CH. DARVIN IS Select one: adaptations of organisms have relative nature all species are adapted to different conditions of existence adaptations of organisms have absolute nature all species originated by means artificial selection
Why was Lyell's concept of uniformitarianism, which proposed that the Earth had been going through gradual geological changes over a much longer period of time than previously believed, important for the development of Darwin's ideas about natural selection? Geological catastrophes can reform the landscape and open new niches into which species can adapt and thrive It provided another argument against the Church's explanation for the creation of Earth It explained how vast mountain ranges could form to separate populations It explained the presence of fossils for species that no longer existed An old Earth provides enough time for the gradual process of evolution to take place
Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution Group of answer choices was based mainly on observations of living species and fossil evidence. was disproven by fossil evidence. was initially based on detailed studies of fossils and was later supported by living species. predicted that fossils, though undiscovered then, would eventually be found.
Darwin believed in Natural Selection as the major explanation for evolution. Explain how the following organisms’ interactions contribute to this theory. 1. How did organisms Have Heritable Variation help with his theory? 2. How did Organisms Compete for Resources help with his theory?
how do scientists support the theory of evolution? use the terms evolution, natural selection, vestigial structures, homologous structures, DNA, adaptations and fossil
Do the comparison between Darwin's and Lamarck's discovery of evolution in depth, by mentioning what are the similarities and focus on the differences between both theories & their hypothesis too.
