The basic one of evolution. That organisms change over time.
dont no
the idea that the earth was very young
Alfred Russel Wallace proposed similar ideas as Darwin after studying the wildlife in the Amazon basin.
Alfred Russel Wallace,Charles Darwin built the theory of Evolution.Jean-Baptiste Lamarck's ideas also helped.
No, Darwin knew nothing about Mendel's ideas and work. His, Darwin's, heritability concept was absolutely wrong. There is a legend that Darwin had a copy of Mendel's work in his desk but could not read German. The veracity of this story is often challenged.
Charles Darwin's ideas on evolution by natural selection were influenced by the scientific and philosophical thinking of his time. Several key concepts and theories from earlier scientists laid the groundwork for Darwin's revolutionary theory. Here are some notable influences: *Geology - Charles Lyell:* Lyell's work, particularly his principle of uniformitarianism, suggested that geological processes observed today have been at work for a very long time. This concept of gradual change over time contributed to Darwin's understanding of a gradual, slow process of evolution. *Economics - Thomas Malthus:* Malthus's essay on population proposed that populations tend to grow faster than the resources needed to support them. Darwin applied this principle to the natural world, forming the basis for his idea of natural selection, where organisms with advantageous traits have a better chance of survival and reproduction. *Taxonomy - Carl Linnaeus:* Linnaeus' system of taxonomy, which classified organisms based on shared characteristics, provided a framework for Darwin to understand the diversity of life. Darwin was influenced by the idea of classifying species and recognizing their relationships. *Fossils - Georges Cuvier:* Cuvier's work on paleontology and the extinction of species contributed to Darwin's understanding of the dynamic nature of life on Earth. Although Cuvier was not an advocate of evolution, his ideas about extinction raised questions about the stability of species. *Transmutation of Species - Jean-Baptiste Lamarck:* Lamarck proposed a theory of the transmutation of species, suggesting that organisms could change over time through the inheritance of acquired characteristics. While Darwin did not fully accept Lamarckian ideas, they contributed to the broader discussion of species change and adaptation. Darwin synthesized these influences and, through extensive observations and experiments, developed the theory of natural selection as a mechanism for evolution. His groundbreaking work, "On the Origin of Species," published in 1859, presented a compelling and evidence-based argument for the theory of evolution, forever changing our understanding of the diversity of life on Earth.
