Charles Darwin, brn in England,postulated natural selection, he assorted that only the strongest and fittest will survive and this he called natural selection . His theory was that the weaker species will eventually die and the strongest species will survive. Relate this theory to one from the 19th or 20th century.
Darwin’s idea on evolution by natural selection has been disproven when it comes to the origin of life because Pasteur discredited spontaneous generation.A) True.B) True, with regards to origin of life only; natural selection applies to later lifeC) False. Pasteur’s experiment discredited ideas that complex organisms (e.g., mice) could arise in weeks or months later from inanimate matter (e.g., cloth) or from other organisms (e.g., grain). Pasteur’s experiment does not discredit the possibility of simple life evolving over billions of year

B. characteristics acquired during the lifetime of an individual are passed on to all descendants of the individual. C. the fittest always impose change on the less fit. D. populations change over time.
