desert the best. This enabled him to hide and kill the other animals like the zebra and giraffe with ease. There was also an Ethiopian man‚ who lived on the High Veldt with the Leopard; and the two would hunt together. Eventually the other animals realized they needed a change if they were going to survive‚ so they traveled to a new forest full of trees and leaves. Due to the shadows in the forest‚ the giraffe developed spots and the zebra developed stripes‚ which allowed them to blend in with their

dominant trait‚ while the weaker traits became recessive. A good example of what Darwin was trying to explain is shown in giraffes. Long-necked giraffes could reach the food on the trees‚ while the short-necked giraffes couldn’t. Since long necks helped the giraffes eat‚ short-necked giraffes died off from hunger. Because of this long-necks became a dominant trait in giraffes. This is what Charles Darwin would later call natural selection. <br> <br>Charles Darwin also showed how new species were

idea that natural selection is the reason as to how and why things evolve. Mirvart uses the example of the neck of the giraffe to disprove Darwin’s theory. Suppose there is a drought which causes limitation on food supply. The Ungulates of that habitat would have to search for other ways to consume their food and the only food left is what can be found in trees. The nascent giraffe‚ being the largest among the Ungulates‚ have an advantage over Ungulates because they are able to feed from the trees

selection‚ Mivart uses giraffes‚ insects that mimic other things in nature‚ fish‚ kangaroos‚ and whales as examples‚ which I will summarize below. Mivart’s first example is the giraffe. Darwin’s theory of natural selection implies that in times of drought‚ giraffes with longer necks would be able to reach the leaves of trees and gain nutrients from them‚ and thus would be able to survive and pass this long-necked trait onto their offspring. Over many generations‚ giraffes would come to

Biological Evolution is the process of change and modification through a species of organisms. Evolution accounts for a species progression in developing and advancing through each generation better suited for the surrounding environment. The process of evolution will never end until the environment in which the species is contained in stops changing for millions of years. Though evolution is a proven fact many people still don’t accept it due to religious views and beliefs conflicting with the theory

is referred to as "law to use and disuse" or as we might say it now‚ "use it or lose it." Lamarck’s Hypothesis Ancestral giraffes probably had short necks subjected to frequent stretching to reach leaves of trees. The offspring had longer necks that were also subjected to frequent stretching. The continued stretching eventually produced the modern long necked giraffes. Darwin Theory As mentioned earlier Charles Darwin‚ a British naturalists‚ published his masterful book the Origin of Species

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
