The Origin and Evolution of Life on Earth Why do we start the discussion of biology with a discussion of geology? Here are some reasons why one would do this: * All life on earth is linked to geology; likewise‚ many surface geologic features and processes have been influenced by life on earth. The origin and early evolution of the earth are especially important when looking at the origin and early evolution of life on earth. * Life chemistry had its origin with the elements available to

Theory of Evolution One of the greatest questions of all time is: "Where did we all come from?" One of the most popular answers to this question is creationism‚ the idea that everything was created by a higher being. Another popular idea is evolution‚ the idea that all living organisms descended from a less complex organism. Evolution possesses a new way of thinking that is being greatly accepted by the scientific community‚ but not by pious groups of people. Creation and evolution are diametrically

The theory of evolution‚ formalized by Charles Darwin‚ is as much theory as is the theory of gravity‚ or the theory of relativity. Unlike theories of physics‚ biological theories‚ and especially evolution‚ have been argued long and hard in socio-political arenas. Even today‚ evolution is not often taught in primary schools. However‚ evolution is the binding force of all biological research. It is the unifying theme. In paleontology‚ evolution gives workers a powerful way to organize the remains of

At this early stage of his life‚ along with graduating college Darwin soon began collecting evidence for his theory of Evolution and natural selection. While on his journey Darwin made many observations. They were mainly about the different species he saw on the Galapagos Islands. Each island had a different variation of birds.

This idea is Darwin’s attempt at an explanation on how the planet and its’ species developed into what society knows them as today.

Evolution of Polar Bears The observed fossil transitions that inform our knowledge of Polar Bear speciation are very well documented. Bear fossils change through time: generally‚ when examining the fossil record‚ successively deeper levels of sediments or sedimentary rocks yield successively older fossils. For some transitions from one species to another‚ one can find a well-characterized series of transitional specimens leading the observer across the species "boundaries" (Kurten‚ 1976). Sometime

He solemnly thinks that he would do the exact same thing as the author and that he would not give an answer. He would refuse the request because he thought that it was unjust. “It always seemed to me inhuman and a travesty of justice if the executioner asked the victim to forgive” (207-208).
