Many carnivorous predators will maim (not kill) their primary prey in an effort to teach their young the rewards of hunting for themselves. This tends to 'evolve' the skills of the young. Grizzlies are well known to toss a wounded salmon to their young, and mountain lions will tear off a leg from a rabbit and throw it their young. Examples abound.
Predators have evolved to become more efficient hunters and have developed adaptations such as keen senses, camouflage, and specialized hunting techniques to improve their success in capturing prey. Over time, they have co-evolved with their prey, leading to a constant arms race where predators and prey are continuously adapting to outsmart each other in order to survive.
The theory of evolution was formulated by Charles Darwin in the mid-19th century, with his seminal work "On the Origin of Species" published in 1859. Darwin proposed the concept of natural selection as the mechanism driving the process of evolution.
Evolution should be taught in schools because it is a well-established scientific theory supported by a vast amount of evidence. Understanding evolution is essential for students to grasp the principles of biology and to critically evaluate scientific knowledge. Teaching evolution does not imply denying or negating any individual's beliefs or religious views.
The three main theories of evolution are Lamarckism, Darwinism, and punctuated equilibrium. Lamarckism suggests that organisms can pass on acquired traits to their offspring, while Darwinism proposes natural selection as the main mechanism of evolution. Punctuated equilibrium suggests that evolution occurs in rapid bursts separated by long periods of stability.
Some states banned the teaching of evolution due to religious reasons, as it contradicted creationist beliefs. They believed that teaching evolution went against their religious views and wanted to prioritize alternative explanations such as creationism or intelligent design in the classroom.
Studying evolution helps us understand the diversity of life on Earth, how species adapt to their environment, and the interconnectedness of different organisms. It also provides insights into medical research, agriculture, conservation, and understanding our own place in the natural world.
the reason why panthers are predators is because through genetic evolution their genes and molacules have not changed from b.c.
Evolution and adaption to survive. (legs to run, eyesight to spot predators)
It is when one species copies the behavior or appearance of another, un-related species, to fool predators.
The evolution of a species is when it changes itself slightly over thousands of years, to adapt to new surroundings. These new surroundings could have different weather, or predators that the species must be able to conceal itself from.
Predation causes traits that enable prey to evade predators to be favoured in the population gene pool.
My favourite example of evolution is the development of multicellular organisms (this has also been observed). A kind of eukaryotic cell once started to bind to its fellow cells in order to make it more difficult for predators to kill them. This is an example of evolution as a result of predation, a selective agent.
Natural selection
natural selection :")
The job of the eye is to provide vision. Evolution-wise, having camera eyes helped our species survive its environment and predators better.
you must got merhzad as yo teacher for biology . i dnt knoe the answer neither .
They are that colour because they absorb the complimentary colours of light. They have developed it through evolution to blend them in to their surroundings to make it harder for predators to see them.
they have predators only in some locations such as a dirty pond with algae and other orgamisms
