What else can I help you with?
Did Darwin use DNA analysis to support his ideas?
No. No one had any idea of DNA in the time of Darwin's evolutionary idea.
Did Darwin have knowledge of DNA when he proposed his theory of evolution?
No, Darwin did not have knowledge of DNA when he proposed his theory of evolution. DNA was not discovered until after Darwin's time, in the 20th century. Darwin's theory of evolution was based on observations of natural selection and the variation and adaptation of species over time.
What two discoveries post-date the work of Darwin and provided a mechanism for natural selection?
Darwin didn't know how traits were passed on to offspring, and how traits were coded (DNA's existence)
What did Charles Darwin NOT know about the process of evolution?
Charles Darwin did not know about the role of genetics in evolution, as Gregor Mendel's work on inheritance was not widely known during Darwin's time. He also did not know about the mechanisms of genetic mutation, recombination, and gene flow that contribute to genetic diversity in populations. Additionally, Darwin was not aware of the concept of DNA as the molecule that carries genetic information.
Charles Darwin's development of DNA?
yes.
What did Darwin not know about his theory of evolution?
Darwin did not know about the role of genetics in inheritance, as Gregor Mendel's work on inheritance was not known to Darwin in his lifetime. Additionally, he did not have knowledge of the mechanism of heredity through DNA and genes.
After Darwin returned to England what hypothesis did Darwin develop to explain his findings?
He developed main streams of DNA.
What unifying them brought the work of mendel and and Darwin together in the big picture of biology?
The unifying theme that united the work of Darwin and Mendel was the discovery of DNA. DNA stands for Deoxyribonucleic acid.
What knowledge did Darwin lack that modern scientists now use to explain evolution?
Modern scientists now use genetics to help explain the theory of natural selections.
What is the duration of What Darwin Didn't Know?
The duration of What Darwin Didn't Know is 1.5 hours.
Who was Charles Darwin's grandfathers?
I only know of Erasmus Darwin (not Erasmus Alvey Darwin)
Did Darwin use DNA or other genetic information in deveolping his theory?
No, Charles Darwin did not use DNA or genetic information in developing his theory of evolution. Darwin formulated his ideas based on observations of natural selection, variation among species, and fossil evidence during his voyages in the 19th century. The understanding of genetics and DNA emerged later, particularly with the work of Gregor Mendel in the mid-1800s and the discovery of DNA's structure in the 20th century. Darwin's theories were foundational for evolutionary biology, but they predate modern genetic science.
