"Inheritance of acquired traits", one of the implications of this would be that if an individual broke a bone and it did not heal correctly then that individual's children would likely be born with this "new acquired trait" of that bone already broken and improperly healed instead of having a normal bone in that location.

What did Lamark think evolution involved that caused his ideas to be incorrect?
He proposed that the biological process of adaptive change over time was driven by an internal desire or motivation within the organism to achieve a goal, e.g., long necks in giraffes. He also incorporated the concept of group selection into his version of evolution, which was later discredited by Darwinism. Individuals always die faster than groups so natural selection will always operate on the individual before the group. Darwinism and current gene centred evolutionary theory has also demonstrated that adaptive change over time is driven by the environment and chance.
How do you get a good headset on a racking horse?
To get a 'good' headset you'll have to train the horse to hold it's head in the position you want it to. But you should note that a horses conformation will ultimately dictate how a horse carries itself. Trying to force a horse into an 'incorrect' frame for it's conformation will lead to health issues later on.

What is a scientist hypothesis?
A hypothesis is a temporary explanation for some observation. It is then tested and, if is found to be incorrect, a new one has to be formed. If found to be correct, it becomes a theory. If that theory is later found to have a counter-example it is modified (hypothesis -> theory - same process) or a completely new hypothesis proposed and tested. The hypothesis alwasy comes before the theory. it is a practical explanation that the scientist develops that accounts for a theory.

Why basalt is found on upper part of the continent?
Basalt is only formed when a magma erupts on the Earth's surface. However, while it only forms on Earth's surface, it can later be buried by sediments accumulating over the top of it. Therefore it is incorrect to say that vasalt is only found on the upper part of the continent, there are basalts within sedimentary sequences.
