Environmental Change Evolution is the process of change that occurs in living organisms over many generations. It is the result of natural selection by the environment of favourable variations in the organisms. Changes in the environment of living organisms can lead to the evolution of plant and animal species. These environmental changes in condition may be physical- temperature‚ rainfall‚ sea level and landforms e.g. Peppered Moths chemical- water salinity‚ acidity‚ use of pesticides‚ oxygen

In “Darwin’s Doubt” by Stephen Meyer‚ Meyer contends that scientists have yet to find a way to account for the Cambrian explosion. He argues that the theory of evolution is unable to provide an explanation for the rapid origin of animals with body plans. The lack of immediate precursors leads to the question of whether or not the appearance of life forms can actually be explained by modification. Meyer supports this thesis by addressing three key topics‚ and later goes into great detail about these

“Wonderful Life” Science has been around us since the beginning of times. In the book “Wonderful Life: The Burgess Shale and the Nature of History” written by Stephen Jay Gould‚ attempts to tackle one of the broadest issues that since can address‚ the nature of history itself.

Recently in the remote rain forests of Tanzania‚ a major herpetological breakthrough was discovered. As a group of field Biologists continued their studies they came across a beautiful and remarkable snake‚ Antheris Matildae (Matildas Horned Viper). What is remarkable about this species is it evolved just about 2.2 million years ago from Atheris Ceratophora (Usambara bush viper)‚ and is just now being discovered. Antheris Matildae is restricted to a very small area of just under 100 square miles
