Being a theory, evolution (or rather "natural selection") is neither "true" nor "false". A theory is put forward as a possible explanation for a phenomenon that can be observed but not easily explained.
There are many "facts" that are offered as evidence of "natural selection" being a good explanation for the huge variety of life on Earth and for the fact that, undoubtedly, species appeared and disappeared over the course of many millions of years, but not everyone is convinced by such "facts". There are other, alternative theories, such as creationism, lamarkism, or even extra-terrestrial intervention, but I'm afraid they're even less convincing than natural selection.
What else can I help you with?
Show you a paper on the theory of evolution?
I can provide a summary or explanation of the theory of evolution. Is there a specific aspect of the theory you would like me to cover?
What is Edwin Darwins theory on evolution?
Edwin Darwin did not propose a separate theory on evolution. The theory of evolution is commonly attributed to Charles Darwin, who put forth the concept of natural selection as the mechanism driving evolution. Edwin Darwin does not have a notable theory associated with evolution.
What is the difference between theory of evolution and biological evolution?
The theory of evolution is the overarching scientific framework that explains how biological evolution occurs. Biological evolution refers specifically to the change in inherited characteristics of populations over generations. Biological evolution is the observed process that supports the theory of evolution.
What was Einstein's theory on evolution?
Albert Einstein did not propose a theory of evolution. His primary contributions were in the fields of physics, particularly in the theory of relativity and the equation E=mc^2. Evolution is a biological theory developed by Charles Darwin to explain the diversity of life on Earth through the process of natural selection.
Is there a credible scientific theory that opposes evolution?
No, evolution is widely supported by scientific evidence and is considered a fundamental principle of biology. There is no credible scientific theory that opposes evolution.
When Charles Darwin published his theory of evolution it was accepted by all of society.?
False
True or false the theory of evolution focuses on the evolution of the human species?
False. Evolution is a general theory relating to the change amongst species over time. It is not specific to any particular species, nor even to a group of species, but to all species that have ever existed, are existing and will ever exist.
Because ideas about evolution by natural selection have never been proven false what term can be used to describe a evolution by natural selection?
Scientific theory
Is this following sentence true or false Darwin's theory of evolution did not affect the way in witch species were classified?
False. Relationships that that were not apparent to classifiers before the theory of evolution by natural selection was developed were brought into sharp relief by the theory. Mans place in nature, such as his close relationship with the great apes, could now be seen clearly.
What is the difference between the theory of language and evolution?
Theory of evolution refers to animals and plants evolution along the time. Language evolution is another issue, not entirely related to the theory of evolution. It follows the theory of evolution on some way but it is related to culture evolution, not to the physical attributes evolution.
Why is the big bang theory call theory?
It is called a theory because that is precisely what it is. It is not called a theory because it 'isn't real'. Evidence is still coming in, and over the next few generations there will be a more solid sense that it is either NOT a good working model of the universe we observe, or it IS a good working model. As is true of any basic theory, it may one day be over-turned and another model will take its place. Edit: To add to the point made above - Germ Theory is still a "Theory". Although it has not been proven false, nor do we expect it to, so its assumed to be true. Same with gravity, General Relativity is only a theory, but its not been proven false, nor do we expect it to. That is how science works. Nothing is ever proven true. Theories can only be proven false and when theories stand up to rigorous testing and competition and are not able to be proven false, they then become accepted as being true. Theory of Evolution being a great example. We now know evolution is fact, but the Theory of Evolution is our attempt to describe the process of evolution and the theory.....itself....is still evolving.
Is evolution a theory or hypothesis?
Evolution is an observed and observable fact. The theory of evolution by natural selection explains many things about evolution. The theory generates testable hypothesis, as any good theory does. Remember, theory is the highest concept in science.
Complete history of a theory of evolution?
There are many books that describe the theory of evolution. For example, there is a book called Evolution: The Remarkable History of a Scientific Theory.
What is the movement that held to the theory of evolution?
The scientific movement accepts the Theory of Evolution. The Theory is the basis for the science of biology.
What is the prevalent theory of evolution?
the most prevalent theory of evolution is called natural selection.
What is the ISBN of The Theory of Evolution?
The ISBN of The Theory of Evolution is 0-14-020433-4.
Why don't people believe in the theory of evolution?
" Believe in " is the operative word here. People let there feelings and beliefs get in the way of accepting the evidence for evolution. Some have been heavily indoctrinated into either or positions. Either evolution is false or my beliefs are false. When you are given over to belief without evidence then many hang tenaciously onto those beliefs and put themselves on the wrong side of a false dichotomy.
