Evolution
Evolution is the change in the inherited characteristics of biological populations over successive generations. Evolutionary processes give rise to diversity at every level of biological organisation, including species, individual organisms and molecules such as DNA and proteins.Charles Darwin was the first to conjure up the controversial theory of evolution.Charles Darwin wrote a book about the process of evolution called The Origin of Species. The book discusses his theory of evolution and his theory of natural selection. The theory is that natural selection was a process in nature in which organisms contain a specific genetic characteristics that make them better suited for a particular environment or situation. These organisms tend to survive, reproduce, increase in number or frequency. This allows these organisms with the characteristics and qualities necessary for survival to live on and pass these traits on to succeeding generations.
Written by Charles Darwin in 1859 that discusses the controversial theory of evolution and natural selection. The theory is that natural selection was a process in nature in which organisms contain a specific genetic characteristics that make them better suited for a particular environment or situation. This is what we now know as evolution. This book had a great impact on the world because his findings are taught everywhere.
This is the species Charles Darwin used as an example of natural selection.Their beaks have evolved over time to be best suited to their function. For example, the finches who eat grubs have a thin extended beak to poke into holes in the ground and extract the grubs. Finches who eat buds and fruit would be less successful at doing this, while their claw like beaks can grind down their food and thus give them a selective advantage in circumstances where buds are the only real food source for finches.
