You could be surprised by the nonsense of this genius saying all kinds of stupid theories. We were warned about that.
For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Claiming to be wise, they became fools, and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man and birds and animals and creeping things.
-Romans 1:21-23-

What parts of Lamarcks hypotheses have been proved wrong?
Animal behaviors are not inheritable.
What is Darwins's favorite animal?
the galapogas tortois :) but we can't be certain! cos he loves squirtles
What is the current theory of evolution?
That is a very hard question to answer as the "Theory of Evolution" is really an umbrella term for several theories based on the fact that allele frequencies of populations change over time, and the assumption that they have done so for the entirety of life on earth, as well as continuing on into the future. Evolution does NOT claim that there is no God. It makes NO STATEMENT whatsoever about spiritual matters. In fact, statistically speaking, the majority of the people who accept evolution are christians. It also does NOT include big-bang cosmology, does not require a multi-billion year-old earth, and does NOT address the origin of life at all, only its' variety. Current evolutionary theory can be traced to the moment when Darwin proposed his theory on the mechanics of evolution which overturned the previously held view proposed by LaMarck. LaMarcks theory of evolution proposed that an animal gains a trait in its' lifetime and then passes it on. Darwins theory replaced LaMarcks theory by proposing that changes were inherited, but not acquired during the lifetime of the individual. He attributed these changes to random mutations present from birth. Darwin did not stop with a mechanism for these changes, he also divised the "theory of Natural Selection" as a mechanism to favor beneficial mutations. Later, he proposed his "theory of Common Descent" as an explanation of the current variety we see in life. This theory proposes that at some point in the distant past, all living things share a common ancestor. Darwins three ideas have been confirmed through genetics, phylogenics, taxonomy, and paleontology, as well as being supported by every branch of science which can address biology. Through more discoveries, other scientists have developed even more specific theories based on evolution such as, "punctuated equilibrium", "evo-devo", and even the "Out of Africa" theory of human origins. The more we understand about the history of life, the more theories will be developed, but they are all part of evolutionary theory.
What are the plant and animal variations?
The phenotypic variations in plants and animals governed by different genes result from sexual reproduction and are source of evolution.
What is an example of co evolution in the tundra?
This is when one animal will evolve into two different species. Many animals and insects will do this in certain areas.
Can organisms that look different be the same species?
of course not. Animas are llike people, no to people are alike.
What is the relationship between evolution and geography?
Geography can influence evolution by creating barriers that limit the movement of species, leading to genetic isolation and potentially the development of new species through natural selection. Different environments can also drive adaptation in species, with variations in geography providing diverse ecological niches for the evolution of different traits.
What was lamarcks hypothesis about how species change?
Lamarck's hypothesis about evolution was that animals would change based on their environment during their lifetime and pass on those traits to their offspring. This is different from Darwin's theory in that all animals mutate in someway and it's the surviving mutations that pass on that slowly change the animal over many generations.
How does animal classification prove evolution?
5 prove about the animals
What type of animal is thought to have developed after the evolution of the egg?
the chicken
What is the password for animal kaiser evolution sequence?
Death sorch
What type of evolution is human evolution?
Human evolution is no different from the evolution of any other species of plant or animal. Over the course of hundreds of thousands of years our ancestors survived by being the better competitor for resources in their environment in their gene pool. The genes that enabled this better survivability were passed on, until the majority of the population were adapted to their environment etc:. homo habilis or homo sapiens or primates
