Because a single human can analyse several generations of the species - which can lead to evolutionary traits forming.

Why is an evolution refered as a theory?

Because while we can trace the APPARENT path of evolution yielding the species we see around us, in most instances the transition via evolution is implied, not observed. No one was around to observe when most of the evolutionary splits are believed to have occurred so no one documented them to establish as a known fact that that was how the split occurred. In fact there are quite a few instances where scientists have changed their views on which ancestor a particular species branched off from (usually based on further discoveries). Also - theories remain theories until proven via experiments. It's rather difficult to craft an experiment to test natural evolution over any human time scale, although a limited number of experiments have been conducted via forced evolution of some species with very short life cycles.

How many months your menstrual cycle be observe in calculating calendar method?

You should observe your cycles for around six months before using the calendar method. It is important to recognize that the calendar method isn't very reliable, it is much better to use the symptothermal method to observe and track your cycles - especially if using these methods as birth control. You can read more about symptothermal methods via taking charge of your fertility.

Why are there more inveratbrates on earth than vertabrates?

Faster breeding cycles equate to faster rates of evolution and speciation.Additionally their small size means there are more ecological niches for them to fill.
