INTRODUCTION Evolution of Development is best described as a field of Biology that compares the developmental processes of different organisms to determine the ancestral relationship between them, and to discover how developmental processes evolved. Whereas Species Development is the genetic switches that allow different structures to develop in different regions of an embryo, which could also give rise to major morphological differences among species. Everyday new species are being discovered…

The Merriam-Webster dictionary explains evolution as a theory of changes that occur because constant change that excel naturally over a long period of time. (Merriam-Webster) This means that over a long period of time there were changes made from all the species and as time progressed we all started to break up into different categories and then different branches of those categories. It is said that we, as humans, share the same category as the primates. Though, over time we started to evolve…

What is race? First of all, “race” like many words varies in its meanings. References to “race” occurs frequently in our everyday life, as we talk about “the human race”. Other reference s are used in our government offices with regards to forms, this purpose is generally used to determine the number of races for the Census. Still other meanings of the term “race” are more technical, for example a biologist talks about different races of a particular species. Because the meanings…

Life will change over time, gradually forming the most adaptable species look. Ancient creatures can be verified by residual fossils: the older the older, the more the difference between its morphology and the existing species. At the same time people can also discover the relationship between species and species from fossils. Archaeopteryx has sharp teeth, feet three toes have claws, long bone tail, these are dinosaur features, and it also has feathers, wings, and modern birds similar, so is…

Is the way people are born like the Genetics of a child. Studies show that twins can look alike and others may be twins but not look alike at all and one twin can be mental and the other may have a 50% chance of developing conditions like bipolar and major depression. Example: Twins sisters that laugh and look the same because they are twins. But raised in different towns and aren't the same height. They can also read eachothers minds and Nature is the way you may act and like nurture is on…

Acheta domesticus (house cricket) is an ideal specimen for studying nutrition since they are omnivorous and live for about 120 days at 30°C (Lyn et al., 2011). Like other species, crickets compete for resources such as territory, mates, and food. The fighting success of the individual depends on their resource holding power (RPH) and motivation to fight (Nosil, 2002). Predation differs for each individual in forms of affective aggression with regard to motivation and behaviors of the species…

friendly. It was in these two weeks that I realized my passion for agriculture and for ensuring we maintain a stable food supply while not destroying the planet. My last four weeks abroad, I participated in an internship that focused mainly on conservation rather than agriculture, but it taught me the importance of maintaining biodiversity and of saving native…

How Flowers Changed the World: A Review “How Flowers Changed the World” is an essay written by American anthropologist, Loren Eiseley, from his 1957 classic, The Immense Journey, regarding the pivotal role of flowers in the evolution of life. It is an informative and interesting essay that showed the importance and evolution of angiosperms through a factual timeline in a vivid manner that makes us realize our own relationship with nature. This essay about the rise of angiosperms and how they…

grounded ideas we have about the way species evolve and change. Especially considering you developed these ideas without the understanding and knowledge of genetics and molecular biology. But still, you have managed to develop a set of laws explaining the evolution of species, which later became the backbone of biology. Impressive. You have made one of the most important contributions to the science of evolution; your concept of natural selection. Natural selection is the basis for our…

Nature is in the sense of naturism or innatism. Nurture is the sense of empiricism or behavior. When it comes to natural characteristics of a person is quite similar or quite different to the unnatural characteristics of a person. When you have natural characteristics the traits comes from their parents. You have the ones people are born with are genetic. The traits of nature are developed biologically. The nurture characteristics are traits you develop after they are born. The nurture traits a…
