Professor Dave’s Self-Own Explained
Neo-Darwinian evolution is the accepted explanation for the variety of life forms that populate the planet. Darwin made a case that natural selection ensured that beneficial traits that fostered the survival of organisms would be passed on to their offspring, and the science of genetics later explained exactly how those beneficial traits were passed on and how mutations could produce additional new beneficial traits that could also be passed on. Evolution in the broadest sense is “descent with modification,” and empirical observation seems to confirm this. Geological strata that bear no fossilized remains of animals alive today do bear fossilized remains of animals long gone extinct; the bone structures of a human hand, the wing of a bat, and the flipper of a whale bear remarkable similarities that seem to point to a common precursor. A field associated with evolutionary biology is origin of life research, sometimes referred to as the study of “chemical evolu
