evolution

Remember to add your name to your info by putting it in brackets at the end. [Mr Gibb]

There are lots of animals at the start of spring, and not so many at the end. This is because only the strongest animals survive because they are able to fight off others for food. These animals will usually have the best traits, for example a bird who wants to crack nuts will have the biggest beak. The birds with smaller beaks will die, and have no young so eventually the birds with small beaks will die out. Only birds with big beaks will live and have offspring who will also have big beaks. These beaks make them better suited to their environment. This is evolution. Charles Darwin:
 * The first creature appeared in the sea around 1000 million years ago after 3,500 million years of evolution of the earth.
 * Evolving is constantly changing a tiny bit at a time.
 * It can take millions of years for something really tiny to grow like an extra pair of legs or wings.
 * Water was formed 4,000 million years ago.
 * Some religious people don't like to believe in evolution, they prefer to think God made the world in 6 days.
 * Charles Darwin thought of evolution like this:


 * He was a British scientist.
 * Birthday: 12th Feb, 1809.
 * Died: 19th April 1882.
 * He found out how evolution works.

Evolution is where you see a big change in a species phisical or mental state. This was discovered by Charles Darwin. He published this theory of evolution in a book called "On The Origin Of Species"**.** Eventually Darwins theory was accepted into the branches of biology. Thats when more scientists began to look at his theory Thanks to Darwin this is now one of the most known about topics of science and that we can look into with great detail. This has made a masive difference not just to biology but to other science related topics such as phisics.

Charles Darwin was the first physisit to come to the conclusion of evolution. He first came up with this conclusion in the country of zoonomia, not in his own house which i was first told. Charles Darwin wrote a poem as well as a book on his ideas of evolution. Darwin was elected to be a leader of a community group which descused everything from what they should plant in their garden to if they think an appocolypse could happen in the next hundred years**.** James Watt, Matthew Boulton, Joseph Priestly and Josiah Wedgwood were some of his piers in his community descusion group. Darwin explained how a tiny bacteria cell could eventually evolve into an ape or to human beings. He explained this in steps and even how over millions of years the smallest details of an animal could change in their characteristics or features and how the evolving process can speed up and slow down depending on the type of animal or insect. What his piers in his group first thought about evolution was that two different animals come together and reproduce a mixed breed of an animal. Charles Darwin was famously known as a biologist, physisist, poet, philosopher, naturalist and botanist. Charles Darwin went to university at Edinburgh but then changed over to Cambridge and at cambridge he signed up for an expedition to survey a ship called HMS Beagle. he was on this expedition for a long 5 years. At the time when he first thought about how animals got to the size and shape they were, Christians believed that the world and animals were created in 6 days. Darwin worked on his theory of evolution for atleast 20 years because he wanted to show what he has discovered was correct and he also wanted to show evidence of evolution. One of his ways of showing evolution was to catch certain insects that he thought evolved the fastest and to compare one from 1840 to 1868 which is relitively short for evolving. His discovery had worked and he could finally show evidence of evolution.
