Think of it this way, if you evolve really fast, and didnt have time to get used to the thing that you are evolving, whats the point of have tht evolvation if you cant use it? Another answer is that your body needs time to create he cells that produce the thing that you are going to evolve.
Evolve.
As they adapt to their environment, they slowly change over time. They are said to Evolve.
Theory is they change slowly over time as they adapt and the ones that can't die out.
Over time species evolve into new species.
Punctuated equilibrium theory proposes that species evolve rapidly during short periods of significant change, followed by long periods of stability with little evolutionary change. This contrasts with gradualism, which suggests that evolution occurs steadily over long periods of time.
Yes this is very likely. All it would take is a ecosystemal change that makes sharks and dolphins develop a form of mutualism. Over time they will evolve mutually together as their enviroments change and it is no great stretch to think that they will one day try to have sex and it will work.
Communities evolve to have greater biomass and species richness through ecological succession, which is the process of change in the species structure of an ecological community over time. As more species establish themselves and interactions between species become more complex, the community can support a greater biomass and biodiversity. This process can be influenced by factors such as disturbance events, climate change, and species interactions.
Fossils' existence confirms that species are not fixed but can evolve into other species over time
Factors that can affect the survival and change of a species over time include environmental changes, competition for resources, predation, genetic variation, reproductive success, and adaptation. Species that can adapt to changing conditions, reproduce successfully, and outcompete others are more likely to survive and evolve over time.
Not only can aliens evolve into different species but they can make us into a new species but they may only do that with the correct technology. So the question is how will they do it and how much time will they have?
The predictive power of evolution helps us understand how species change and adapt over time. By studying patterns in the past, scientists can make predictions about how species may evolve in the future. This knowledge enhances our understanding of the development of species over time.
Evolution in Biology terms means a change in a species over a long period of time. It can take several generations for a characteristic in a species to change.
