Genetics is the study of genes, heredity and variation of living organisms in Biology. Molecular genetics supports evolution as its processes work in combination with the environment and experiences of an organism to influence their development and behavior.

How did the modern study of genetics at that Darwin's original theory of evolution?

The modern study of genetics has provided evidence to support and refine Darwin's original theory of evolution. Discoveries in genetics have shown that variations in genes can lead to variations in traits within populations, which can be acted upon by natural selection, ultimately driving evolution. This integration of genetic principles with evolutionary theory has provided a more comprehensive understanding of how species change over time.


What kind of evidence for evolution best support's all the others?

Molecular genetics


In biology what is the study of hereditary called?

In biology, the study of hereditary or heredity is called Genetics. This field of science deals with the study of genes, evolution and how genes are transmitted from one generation to the other.


What is meant by modern theory of evolution?

The modern theory of evolution combines Darwin's theory of natural selection with our current understanding of genetics to explain how species change over time. It emphasizes that genetic variation, inheritance, and environmental pressures drive the process of evolution. This theory is supported by evidence from fields such as genetics, paleontology, and biogeography.


What biological sciences support Darwin's theory of evolution?

The better question would be; what biological sciences DO NOT support Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection. Evolution is the backbone of biology and the theory that explains much about evolution is the bedrock on which all biology is built, regardless of the apparent absence in some disciplines of biology. It is no longer just Darwin's theory as many disciplines not formed then, and some extant then, have added to and refined the theory. Genetics Molecular cell biology. Evolutionary developmental biology. Biochemistry. Geology. Paleontology. Population generics. Botany. Evolutionary biology. And the list can go on. Google, disciplines in biology, wiki.

It doesn't. Evolution is explained by population genetics, evolutionary theory.

What is the study of evolution from a genetic point of view?

The study of evolution from a genetic point of view is known as evolutionary genetics. It focuses on how genetic variation within populations changes over time, leading to the evolution of new species. By studying genes and their interactions, evolutionary geneticists can uncover mechanisms driving evolution.
