Evolution occurs when life forms reproduce with genetic variation of inherited traits, within an environment with a limited carrying capacity (which is basically all environments). In other words, evolution happens where life as we know it exists.

Who had the theory of evolution?
The generally accepted theory of evolution by natural selection was proposed by Charles Darwin
What fault generally occurs at a divergent boundary?
normal
What is the part of the plant where photosynthesis generally occurs?
chloroplasts...
What is the ability of an organism to change internally and externally in relation to its environment?
The process where organisms evolve through time is called evolution. This natural phenomenon occurs as a result of changes in the environment.
Who was presented the theory of evolution?
While others presented the basis of the idea, Charles Darwin presented The Theory of Evolution as it is understood today. His book, The Theory of Evolution is generally credited as the beginning of the movement.
Generally evolution by natural selection occurs quite slowly over?
Evolution through natural selection occurs slowly over millions of years. It has been hypothesized that evolution is the result of positive mutations that occur in a community of organisms that help them survive better. Evolution is essentially descent with modification.
The smallest unit in which evolution occurs is?
The smallest unit in which evolution occurs is a population.
What do gradualism and punctuated equilibrium have in common?
Punctuated equilibrium is commonly contrasted against phyletic gradualism, the belief that evolution generally occurs uniformly and by the steady and gradual transformation of whole lineages (called anagenesis). In this view, evolution is seen as generally smooth and continuous.
What three items do evolutionists disagree about?
One is that evolution occurs gradually and consistently.The other is that evolution occurs as a result of competition for 'niches'
Is evolution closely related to DNA?
Yes; changes in DNA are the vehicle by which evolution occurs.
Does evolution occur in individuals or in population?
Evolution occurs in population not in an individual.
Occurs when species that were similar become increasingly distinct?
Divergent evolution:)
What is the name of the process of which evolution occurs?
The best answer is death.
What is Evolution according to Charles Darwin?
Evolution
Where did evolution occur?
The only known instance of evolution occurring is here, on Earth. Logic dictates, however, that evolution occurs wherever there is life.
Do you think that evolution by natural selection is occurring in cacti?
Evolution occurs in all life, all the time.
How the gradualism model of evolution differs from the punctuated equilibrium model of evolution?
The gradualism model of evolution states that change occurs gradually over time. On the other hand, the punctuated equilibrium model states that change occurs suddenly or rapidly.
