What theory of evolution did lamarck develop in 1809?
Jean Lamarck's theory of evolution is known as zoological philosophy or the inheritance of acquired characteristics, and stated that changes to an organisms phenotype (basically what it looks like) will cause changes to it's genotype (DNA).

This posits that, for example, females mate with males that they find most attractive. Therefore genetic lines that provide sexually attractive features in offspring are more likely to be passed on. It is also stated, that the preference for the sexually attractive characteristic can be passed on in the females, thus reinforcing the propensity to maintain the characteristic.
