Review darwin's theory of natural selection. Write a paragraph reflection explaining a) what you learned from the evidence of revolution and b.) The connections you made with what you learn about darwin's theory of natural selection and how meet mutations play an important role in the natural selection.
simply compare darwin and lamarcks theory and tell me which one makes more sense and why?
What does the following phrase mean? “Evolution is a discipline of reconstructing past relationships, not filling in a linear chain of ‘missing links.’” Use vocabulary from the textbook to help you answer this question. I am looking for at least two SOLID paragraphs, since this question is worth two points.
Describe how Darwin changed the way people understand how the world works. Note: On Jun 4th, 1539, Martin Luther discussed with his disciples; a certain new astrologer who wanted to prove that the Earth moves and not the sky, the Sun, and the Moon. Astrologer Nicolaus Copernicus and his heliocentric theory would ultimately displace Earth from the center of the universe. By the late 17th century, among the Western scientific intelligentsia, Earth was no longer the center of the universe.
1. Which describes the modern classification system?a. based on evolutionary relationshipsb. called Linnean classificationc. based on similar appearancesd. called Darwinian classification2.

In lecture we discussed eight (8) lines of evidence that Darwin used to lay out his argument for the fact of evolution in his book On the Origin of Species (1859). Using your materials from lecture and the last chapter of the "Origin" that we read for section, 1) rank order these lines of evidence based on what you find the most to the least compelling. 2) Be sure to describe each of these lines of evidence and 3) discuss how they are, or not, relevant in the early 21st century. (From old pset1) Evidence Variation in domesticated species and breeding (artificial selection) Hierarchical classification (groups nested within groups) "Unity of type" - modification of the same basic structure (homology) Evident "fit" of organisms to environments (but imperfections) (adaptation) Structures without apparent function (vestigial structures) Similarity of organisms in early phases of development (embryology) Order in diversity through time in the fossil record (paleontology) Order in…
Circle the letter of each sentence that is true about evolutionary relationship of organisms? * a. DNA evidence shows that the giant pandas are more closely related to raccoons than bears. b. Scientist infer that the species with similar body structure and development patterns inherited many of the same genes from acommon ancestor.a c. Scientist never have to change their hypotheses about species relationships. d. Scientist can compare protein structure to determine how closely two species are related .

According to Gould, what evidence did Darwin look for in specimens? A. Evidence of biological parts that are strange and odd B. Evidence of a perfect natural purpose to biological parts C. Evidence of intelligent design
State 5 facts and 3 inferences Darwin used to construct the theory of Natural Selection. I'm confused I've listed overproduction, variation, and adaptation as the three inferences, but I do not know what to put for facts because what I've listed might belong under the facts category. Thanks!
