Does creationism disprove adaptation?
Minor adaptations and changes, as can be observed in living things today, are of course not denied or disproved by Creationism. What Creationism does deny is the notion that Evolution could bring about new species or even new organs.See also:Is there evidence against Evolution?Can you show that God exists?Seeing God's wisdom
When and where does evolution take place?
Everywhere where life is, all the time.
What are methods that cause evolution to take place?
creation of diversityselection of successful varients
What is the difference between geologic evolution and biological evolution?
Geological "evolution" is based on reliably predictable patterns, for example the process of the formation of mountains as a result of tectonic stress, and the subsequent erosion of those mountains. The patterns are dictated by the laws of physics. Also, there is no "genetic material" that is inherited by a next "generation" of mountains. Biological evolution, though it of course needs to operate within the constraints of the laws of physics and chemistry, is much harder or even impossible to predict as there are very complex co-dependent factors influencing the direction the evolution of a species will take. Each generation also drives the evolution of its species in a specific direction by inheriting the genetic code of its ancestors. For example, the formation of mountains will follow the same pattern independent of the climate, while biological evolution is certainly influenced by climate.
Where do most of the life functions take place within a cell?
cytoplasm
What is the smallest group of organisms in which evolution can take place?
The smallest group of organisms wherein evolution can take place is a population. This is because all methods of evolution require chromosomes from more than one organism.
What is the evolution of a polyp into a Medusa?
Within a life cycle, a cnidarian transitioning between a polyp and a medusa is not evolution. Evolution happens over many generations, not within a single one. How the two forms evolved to both take place within a single life cycle is not well understood.
What is an example of evolution with a species that you can observe within your lifetime?
Usually animals take longer than a human lifespan to adapt to new environments. It take a singling out of the most fit.
How does the theory of evolution explain variety within species?
The General Theory of Evolution posits that change occurs not only 'within' a species, but also 'across' species. In this way, change is actually unlimited in the sense that, given the right circumstances and given the right environmental pressures, any form of biological life could eventually be pushed from one species to another. A lizard could be pushed into the form of a bird; a whale could be pushed into the form of a wolf. So, as we take a look at the General Theory of Evolution (AKA Macroevolution)

Does sexual reproduction help or hinder the evolution of a species?
Sexual reproduction helps evolution because it allows for changes to take place over generations. Without any reproduction, no evolution would occur because the species only sees change over time and generations, it cannot be seen in one lifetime. Plus, without reproduction, the species will become extinct.
In biology evolution means what?
Evolution in Biology terms means a change in a species over a long period of time. It can take several generations for a characteristic in a species to change.
Faults with theory of evolution?
The rates at which we know genetic mutations take place does not seem to be able to account for the number of species present on Earth given how old the Earth is believed to be.
Where does a dream within a dream take place?
All dreams take place within the mind of the dreamer, just as one's thoughts take place within one's mind.

When did the monkey trial take place?
John Scopes for teaching Evolution
