Darwinism is a theory regarding the evolution of the species. Darwinism does not speak specifically to the beginning of the universe. God's existence either as the starter or the responsible entity for secondary causation does not negate Darwinism. It may just be a methodology for explaining secondary causation that according to current understading is rather haphazard or random. Gregory Mendel was an Augustian Monk and considered the founder of mondern genetic theory, his life alone should be

Session 1.3: The Evolution of Cellular Life Exam review view in a separate window In this session we focus on the natural history of cells and the evolutionary timelines of their appearance. The modern phylogenetic classification of domains is used to categorize the different types of cells: bacteria, archea, and eukarya. The names of periods and organisms and certain dates are often helpful in remembering or understanding events that occur in the natural history of evolution. However,

The Theory of Evolution “It is not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change.” (Charles Darwin). One of the more controversial pieces ever written was Darwin’s Natural Selection. The controversy is evolution vs. creation. Religion says earth and mankind, and life in general was created by god (as told in the creation story) with a design and purpose. Darwin says life all descends from a common ancestor with modifications over time

Abstract In the 1970s, an investigator named John Endler traveled to Trinidad in the 1970s to study wild guppies. The guppies live in small streams that flow down the mountains from pool to pool. The experiment will take part on an online simulation of Endler's work. The group of members is responsible for collecting data, formulating a hypothesis, and running a series of experiments. They will find out about the interplay between natural selection and sexual selection in this wild population of

Unknown There is no hope of doing perfect research In 1998, Griffiths observed that there is no hope in perfect research (97). To understand this, one needs to define the terms research and perfect properly. Put in basic terms, research can be defined as the process of probing or rummaging again while the word perfect means a state with no flaws or errors (Chiwa 14). Griffiths argued that the solutions arrived at in any research are not absolute and are subject to change. In my opinion, Griffiths’
