    amount that can survive, naturally, a struggle to survive emerges. From this concept, Darwin then proceeds to define natural selection as “[…] the principle, by which each slight variation, if useful [to the survival of an organism], is preserved […]” (Origin 108). One point is key to this argument: natural selection itself is not random, and is dependent on the environment, which in turn leads to different variants being favored over others; however, the variants themselves are random. Variants…

    Charles Darwin is a scientist that came up with the theory of natural selection to explain variation and evolution. Natural selection is the differential survival and reproduction of individuals due to differences in phenotype (Zimmer&Emlen, 2013). This means that in an environment where the condition is constantly changing, species that stay in that environment and use it as their habitat adapt to the changes of the environment to survive the changes and their off springs are also able to…

    Since the publication of Darwin’s “On the Origin of Species” in 1859, natural selection has been widely accepted by the scientific community as the engine that drives evolution, or the change of frequency of heritable characteristics in a population over time. Natural selection results in the survival of the fitter individuals of a given population, and therefore the increase in frequency of the genes that produced the adaptive phenotype. For natural selection to occur, there are three…

    Max Nordau’s Degeneration and Charles Darwin's The Origin of Species argues about the evolution and degeneration of Earth's species; but what about species on other planets? In H.G. Wells’ War Of The Worlds martians eventually ended up degenerating. Also in his novel the martians mainly have the same organs and functions of a human. And so that leads me to ask the question. How will the martians degenerated and evolve? What is Degeneration? Max Nordau discusses Degeneration in five books with…
