Planets form, and they undergo changes as they age. This process of change might be termed 'geological evolution', but this should not be confused with biological evolution, which is an entirely different kind of process.
Charles Darwin was the first person to explain evolution by, what he termed, natural selection. However, Darwin's book Origin of Species only makes small mention of human evolution. In fact, Thomas Huxley, working on the evolutionary basis created by Darwin, was the first person to put forward a book detailing the similarities and differences between apes and humans in his book Evidence as to Man's Place in Nature, which appeared before Darwin properly addressed the issue.
Through careful observation during his voyage on the HMS Beagle, Charles Darwin came to understand that species adapt to their environments over time through a process he later termed natural selection. He noted variations among species in different geographic locations, particularly in the Galápagos Islands, which suggested that these variations were beneficial for survival and reproduction. This insight laid the groundwork for his theory of evolution, emphasizing the connection between environmental pressures and the traits that enhance an organism's fitness.

Charles Darwin is considered to be the father of modern biology. Aristotle termed 'natural philosophy' which we would define today as physics, biology and natural sciences. See the related links for more information.

The phenomenon responsible for the formation of the highest mountains is Tectonism. This is caused mostly as a result the collision movements of various lithospheric plates. The process of formation of the mountains is termed Orogeny.
Metabolic processes that require oxygen are termed aerobic. Metabolic processes that do not require oxygen are termed anaerobic.
