What idea advocated survival of the fittest?

" Survival of the fittest " is an inaccurate phrase coined by one Herbert Spencer, though Darwin did use this phrase in later edition of The Origin. The theory of evolution by natural selection showed how the " fit " survive and, more importantly, achieve reproductive success. Tell your teacher to stop using this phrase!


Did Charles Darwin know about the universality of the genetic code when he proposed the methods of evolution?

The modern concept of genetics was unknown during Darwin's lifetime, and for many years after. Darwin based his theory of evolution upon observation of the similarities and differences between closely related species, and how they could have developed.


What is the Descent of modification is also known as?

The descent of modification is also known as the theory of evolution by natural selection. This concept, proposed by Charles Darwin, states that species evolve over time through the process of natural selection, where individuals with advantageous traits are more likely to survive and pass on their genes to the next generation.


How did Darwin use scientific methods before presenting his ideas on the Theory of evolution by natural selection to?

Darwin collected extensive data from nature, including observations from his voyage on the HMS Beagle and research on various species. He also conducted experiments and analyzed patterns in nature to develop his theory of evolution by natural selection. Overall, Darwin employed scientific methods such as observation, experimentation, and analysis to support his ideas.


Is the Darwin theory of evolution true?

We don't use the word "true" to describe scientific theories. They either fit the facts or they do not. Darwin's theory of evolution fits most of the observed facts, and does so beautifully. A theory is useful if it makes successful predictions. Darwin's theory has absolutely zero to do with belief in God. The Catholic Church does not hate God, yet endorses the view that evolution has occurred in much the way Charles Darwin described. Is there a scientific theory that better explains the evidence from paleontology, geology, anatomy, and molecular biology? No. Therefore, we provisionally accept the theory of evolution as an accurate depiction of the origin of species. Again, this has nothing to do with whether or not God exists and/or loves you. Evolution is wrong. God is true.

Why did Darwin note to himself never use the word higher or lower when referring to the evolution of plants and animals?

There was no such thing as a gradation from simple to complex organism; as Darwin stressed, from then on, we could "Never use the words higher or lower" when referring to organisms; instead we speak of ancestral or derived characters.

What knowledge did Darwin lack that scientist now use to explain evolution?

Darwin lacked a sensible mechanism of heredity. His concept of blending was so off the mark that a Scottish engineer showed that evolution could not take place with the mechanism Darwin proposed. Mendel's concept of particulate inheritance was the correct solution to this problem.
