In Neil Shubins’ “Your Inner Fish: A Journey Into the 3.5-Billion-Year History of the Human Body”, he takes the audience on the journey of the discovery and history of how different organisms and adaptations have converged to form a relationship between fish and tetrapods. Shubins first relates the evolutionary fact that humans and other forms of “tetrapods’ major body systems have developed from fish and sharks” (20), through his time on the field as a paleontologist. He describes his multiple…

Evolution is the theory of modern biology, concerning all biological areas, this theory has supported evidence and many scientists believe it to be truth. Creationist beliefs are not a scientific alternate interpretation to evolution. This is the reason why creationism should not become part of public school curriculums, first for the fact that it is illegal, the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution prohibits the government from establishing religion.

They were provided with a booklet that had various activities which were intrinsic to their Field reports such as a site…

medical resource is come to our life, because all the doctors with exquisite skills. Also, it is because of the animal, from fruit flies to mice, are widely used in scientific research. They are the key to enabling scientists to better understand human biology and health, and to develop new drugs (n, 2015). Animals are really important to us, in the back days, they help us a lot with agriculture, translate and so on. Even nowadays they help us a lot too. Also, animals are really cute, and most…

Introduction In this study, we explored the concept of different habitat utilization at different life stages using a species of Buckeye butterflies known as Junonia Coenia. The concept of habitat utilization is known as the way organisms make use of the resources in their habitat for successful reproduction and a way to avoid predators. The main objective of this study was to determine if larvae and adults would be found at the same height and distance on the host plant and to compare their…

Evolution, Physical & Linguistic Anthropology Evolution is defined by Charles Darwin as a process in which “organisms develop or diversify from an early simple form to that of more recent or complex form.” (Than, K. 2015). Physical anthropology is the study of how those living organisms evolve over the course of history. These physical anthropologists investigates evolution by examining artifacts, fossils, and other remains that have been left behind, in order to understand the differences in…

Have you ever wondered how you developed your personality? The nature vs. nurture debate is a debate of which one plays a bigger role in a person’s life.

Nature is genetics from the parents, and it makes the physical features of your body, it can also influence how we act. Look at Aais and Sam they both have the same laugh and are energetic, but they…

NATURAL SELECTION SIMULATION (“STICK-BIRD”) INTRODUCTION Within a hypothetical population of “worms” (toothpick) that inhabit a predominantly green-coloured environment (green grass), there are four colour of variations; red, blue, cream and green. The worms are food for a predator known as a “stick-bird” (students). This experiment is designed to let students observe the effects of the theory of evolution by natural selection. Natural selection is an explaination of how evolution could have…
