Oliveros‚ Juliene Ana Dusha R. 2011-031128 3PSED2 July 11‚ 2013 “Evolution by natural selection is now replaced by evolution through human intervention.” Evolution has been one of the big topics on the science part of the world. Through years‚ there has been many debates on not the idea of evolution but by which process(es) it undergoes. There is the natural and artificial selections. I take I have enough knowledge to distinguish both sides of the argument and to take my stand which would be

species have provided valuable insights into angiosperm (flowering plant) genome structure‚ function and evolution. For example‚ A. thaliana has experienced two genome duplications since its divergence from Carica‚ with rapid DNA sequence divergence‚ extensive gene loss and fractionation of ancestral gene order eroding the resemblance of A. thaliana to ancestral Brassicales1. Compared with an ancestor at just a few million years ago‚ A. thaliana has undergone a ~30% reduction in genome size2 and

Was Darwin Wrong? By David Quammen Evolution by natural selection‚ the central concept of the life’s work of Charles Darwin‚ is a theory. It’s a theory about the origin of adaptation‚ complexity‚ and diversity among Earth’s living creatures. If you are skeptical by nature‚ unfamiliar with the terminology of science‚ and unaware of the overwhelming evidence‚ you might even be tempted to say that it’s "just" a theory. In the same sense‚ relativity as described by Albert Einstein is "just" a theory

Decisions are always hard choices we have to make. Even during this election session there are only two candidates but we have such hard decision to make. Two parties but millions of different views‚ thoughts and action. But as we were growing up we were taught that all humans are same‚ and carry the same flesh and blood. So‚ why do two people have millions of differences? Why everyone is so same in structure but so different on habits? Why do people born on the same day and same condition can grow

Social Darwinism was named after the Naturalist‚ Charles Darwin‚ and the belief of evolution in society. One of the founders of Social Darwinism is the philosopher Herbert Spencer‚ who influenced many Social Darwinist leaders‚ such as William Graham Sumner; Spencer often used the phrase “Survival of the fittest” in his Social Darwinist lectures

Censorship has been around for years in America‚ but has recently been put in the spotlight due to the amount of censored materials in the news‚ on the internet‚ and in classrooms nationwide. The works of Shakespeare‚ Les Miserables‚ the theory of evolution‚ and many movies have become victim to censorship throughout the years (O’Neil‚ 304). This extreme censorship is detrimental to the freedom of speech and education. As previously mentioned‚ censorship is the act of suppressing or deleting information

The sources of genetic variation such as mutations and sexual recombination will also be reviewed. Mechanisms of Evolution It is said that biology “came of age” when Charles Darwin published “On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection”. In this book Darwin expressed his concept on the mechanism of evolution: natural selection. He felt that
