He believed in natural selection that members of a species that are best suited to their environment survive and reproduce at a higher rate. Based on over production, variation, adaption and selection.
What is Darwin's theory

A mutation might cause a slight curve to develop in a fishes tail.

French scientist propose model of how life evolves.. the fossil record showed that species had changed over time. He explained evolution based on the idea that an individual organism can acquire a new trait during its lifetime and then pass on that trait to its offspring.(giraffes stretch in g necks to reach trees)
What is Lamark's theory?

The fish with the curved tail is able to swim more quickly to escape predators and the fish reproduces.
What is an example of adaptation?
200

300
father was a doctor mom dead right after birth couldn't' go to medical school because of the blood Darwin's brother was his best friend
Name four interesting ideas about Darwin?
300
With each generation more fish with a curved tail survive to reproduce. Over time they make up a larger part of the group.
What is an example of selection?
300

Laramark conclusions about evolution served in military zoologist propose humans coming from apes
What are four interesting ideas about Laramark?
400
It is the evolution of a new species from and existing species. It may occur when an environment changes dramatically. The Galapagos finch is an example.
What is speciation?
400
It has a purple beak and his brown with fur.
What are the physical features of platypus?

What is the reason people should or should not try and save the asian elephant..support with evidence.

A fish lays hundreds of eggs but only a small number will survive to adulthood.
What is an example of overproduction?
500
It is when being separated from the animals on the mainland and they were not able to breed with mainland relatives and then it causes speciation. Physical barriers cause isolation of species and could cause speciation.
What is isolation?
