What is Free Evolution?

Free evolution is the notion that the natural processes of living organisms can lead to their development over time. This includes the emergence and 에볼루션 게이밍 development of new species.

This has been demonstrated by many examples, including stickleback fish varieties that can thrive in fresh or saltwater and walking stick insect varieties that prefer particular host plants. These reversible traits, however, cannot explain fundamental changes in basic body plans.

Evolution through Natural Selection

Scientists have been fascinated by the development of all living organisms that inhabit our planet for many centuries. The most well-known explanation is that of Charles Darwin's natural selection process, a process that occurs when individuals that are better adapted survive and reproduce more effectively than those who are less well adapted. As time passes, a group of well adapted individuals grows and eventually forms a whole new species.

Natural selection is an ongoing process and involves the interaction of 3 factors including reproduction, variation and inheritance. Variation is caused by mutation and sexual reproduction, both of which increase the genetic diversity within an animal species. Inheritance is the passing of a person's genetic characteristics to their offspring which includes both dominant and recessive alleles. Reproduction is the process of producing fertile, viable offspring which includes both asexual and sexual methods.

Natural selection is only possible when all of these factors are in harmony. For example the case where an allele that is dominant at a gene causes an organism to survive and reproduce more often than the recessive allele the dominant allele will become more common in the population. If the allele confers a negative advantage to survival or lowers the fertility of the population, it will be eliminated. This process is self-reinforcing which means that an organism with a beneficial characteristic can reproduce and survive longer than one with an inadaptive trait. The greater an organism's fitness which is measured by its ability to reproduce and survive, is the more offspring it can produce. People with good traits, like the long neck of giraffes, or bright white color patterns on male peacocks, are more likely than others to reproduce and survive which eventually leads to them becoming the majority.

Natural selection is only a factor in populations and not on individuals. This is a major distinction from the Lamarckian theory of evolution which claims that animals acquire traits through use or disuse. For instance, if the Giraffe's neck grows longer due to stretching to reach for prey, its offspring will inherit a larger neck. The differences in neck length between generations will continue until the giraffe's neck becomes too long that it can not breed with other giraffes.

Evolution by Genetic Drift

In genetic drift, the alleles within a gene can be at different frequencies in a group by chance events. At some point, one will attain fixation (become so common that it can no longer be eliminated through natural selection), while other alleles fall to lower frequency. In extreme cases it can lead to dominance of a single allele. The other alleles are essentially eliminated, and heterozygosity decreases to zero. In a small number of people it could result in the complete elimination of recessive gene. This is called a bottleneck effect, and it is typical of evolutionary process that takes place when a large amount of individuals move to form a new population.

A phenotypic bottleneck may happen when the survivors of a disaster such as an epidemic or a mass hunting event, are concentrated in a limited area. The surviving individuals will be largely homozygous for the dominant allele, which means that they will all have the same phenotype and therefore have the same fitness traits. This could be the result of a war, an earthquake or even a cholera outbreak. The genetically distinct population, if it remains vulnerable to genetic drift.

Walsh Lewens, Lewens, and Ariew use Lewens, 무료 에볼루션 (Https://gitlab.radioecca.org/evolution6303) Walsh and Ariew employ a "purely outcome-oriented" definition of drift as any deviation from the expected values of differences in fitness. They cite the famous example of twins who are both genetically identical and share the same phenotype. However, one is struck by lightning and dies, while the other lives to reproduce.

This type of drift is vital to the evolution of an entire species. However, it's not the only method to evolve. Natural selection is the most common alternative, in which mutations and migration keep the phenotypic diversity of a population.

Stephens claims that there is a significant difference between treating drift as a force or as a cause and treating other causes of evolution, such as mutation, selection and migration as forces or 에볼루션 코리아 (Luckyway7.Com) causes. He argues that a causal-process explanation of drift lets us separate it from other forces and that this distinction is essential. He further argues that drift has a direction, that is it tends to reduce heterozygosity. It also has a specific magnitude which is determined by population size.

Evolution through Lamarckism

Biology students in high school are often introduced to Jean-Baptiste Lemarck's (1744-1829) work. His theory of evolution, often called "Lamarckism, states that simple organisms transform into more complex organisms through adopting traits that are a product of the use and abuse of an organism. Lamarckism can be illustrated by the giraffe's neck being extended to reach higher branches in the trees. This would result in giraffes passing on their longer necks to their offspring, which then grow even taller.

Lamarck was a French Zoologist. In his opening lecture for his course on invertebrate Zoology at the Museum of Natural History in Paris on the 17th of May in 1802, he introduced a groundbreaking concept that radically challenged the conventional wisdom about organic transformation. In his opinion living things had evolved from inanimate matter through the gradual progression of events. Lamarck was not the first to propose this, but he was widely regarded as the first to give the subject a comprehensive and general overview.

The predominant story is that Charles Darwin's theory on evolution by natural selection and Lamarckism fought in the 19th Century. Darwinism eventually prevailed, leading to the development of what biologists today call the Modern Synthesis. The theory argues that acquired characteristics can be inherited and instead argues that organisms evolve through the selective action of environmental factors, like natural selection.

Although Lamarck supported the notion of inheritance through acquired characters and his contemporaries offered a few words about this idea however, it was not an integral part of any of their evolutionary theorizing. This is partly due to the fact that it was never tested scientifically.

However, it has been more than 200 years since Lamarck was born and in the age genomics there is a huge amount of evidence to support the heritability of acquired characteristics. This is often referred to as "neo-Lamarckism" or, more often, epigenetic inheritance. It is a form of evolution that is just as relevant as the more popular Neo-Darwinian theory.

Evolution by Adaptation

One of the most widespread misconceptions about evolution is that it is driven by a type of struggle for survival. This view is inaccurate and ignores other forces driving evolution. The fight for survival can be more precisely described as a fight to survive within a specific environment, which could be a struggle that involves not only other organisms but also the physical environment.

Understanding how adaptation works is essential to comprehend evolution. It is a feature that allows living organisms to survive in its environment and reproduce. It could be a physical structure like fur or feathers. Or it can be a trait of behavior, like moving to the shade during hot weather, or coming out to avoid the cold at night.

The ability of a living thing to extract energy from its environment and interact with other organisms and their physical environments is essential to its survival. The organism must possess the right genes to generate offspring, and it should be able to access enough food and other resources. The organism should be able to reproduce at an amount that is appropriate for its specific niche.

These factors, together with mutations and gene flow can cause an alteration in the ratio of different alleles in the population's gene pool. The change in frequency of alleles can lead to the emergence of new traits and eventually new species over time.

A lot of the traits we admire about animals and plants are adaptations, for example, lungs or gills to extract oxygen from the air, fur or feathers to provide insulation long legs to run away from predators, and camouflage for hiding. To comprehend adaptation, it is important to differentiate between physiological and behavioral traits.

Physiological adaptations, such as thick fur or gills are physical characteristics, whereas behavioral adaptations, such as the desire to find companions or to retreat to shade in hot weather, aren't. In addition, it is important to note that a lack of forethought does not make something an adaptation. A failure to consider the consequences of a decision, even if it appears to be logical, can make it unadaptive.
