      • Darwin accumulated evidence showing that evolution had occurred, that diverse organisms share common ancestors, and that living beings have changed drastically over the course of Earth’s history. More important, however, he extended to the living world the idea of nature as a system of matter in motion governed by natural laws.

  2. 3 days ago · Evolution - Natural Selection, Adaptation, Genetics: The central argument of Darwin’s theory of evolution starts with the existence of hereditary variation. Experience with animal and plant breeding had demonstrated to Darwin that variations can be developed that are “useful to man.”

  4. 3 days ago · The 19th-century English naturalist Charles Darwin argued that organisms come about by evolution, and he provided a scientific explanation, essentially correct but incomplete, of how evolution occurs and why it is that organisms have features—such as wings, eyes, and kidneys—clearly structured to serve specific functions.

  5. 5 days ago · Darwin’s theories on the evolution of emotional expression have greatly contributed to our understanding of how emotions have evolved and functioned in human beings (Hess & Thibault, 2009). His ideas have provided a framework for studying the universality of emotional expressions across cultures and their similarities to expressions observed in other primates.

  6. 5 days ago · Advances in biological science are leading to a striking new understanding of how organisms evolve. Charles Darwin’s ‘natural selection’ remains the principal mechanism, but which traits are favoured is partly determined by properties of the organism itself, leading to differences between species in the ability to evolve.

  7. 4 days ago · This clear case of the independent evolution of a D-SQ jaw joint in Riograndia and in ancient mammals is a cautionary tale, countering our naive preference for a simple story of linear evolution ...

  8. 3 days ago · Evolution, as related to genomics, refers to the process by which living organisms change over time through changes in the genome. Such evolutionary changes result from mutations that produce genomic variation, giving rise to individuals whose biological functions or physical traits are altered.
