Give a Darwinian explanation of how cheetahs evolved to become faster. Your explanation is how natural selection works using Cheetahs as an example. Be sure to include and explain the ideas of differential reproductive success and descent with modification. (You do not need to mention the formation of new species.)
Darwin’s view of the evolution of the giraffe was
In 1798, a stuffed platypus specimen was delivered to the British Museum. Reports that it laid eggs created much confusion. To modem biologists, a platypus is clearly a mammal. It has fur and the females produce milk. Young animals have typical mammalian teeth that are replaced by hardened pads of the bill as the animal matures. Why do you think modem biologists can more easily accept that a mammal can have some reptilelike traits than scientists who were considering this animal in the late 1700s?

Some human traits may have arisen by sexual selection. Over thousands of years, women attracted to charming, witty men perhaps prompted the development of human intellect beyond what was necessary for mere survival. Men attracted to women with juvenile features may have shifted the species as a whole to be less hairy and softer featured than any of our simian relatives. Can you think of a way to test this hypothesis?
