There is no "end goal" in the evolutionary process, nor does it ever stop - it may stagnate within species for a period of time, until environmental conditions change. The structure and replication method of DNA make mutations, and therefore evolution, unavoidable and continuous as long as there is life.

What gas became part of Earths atmosphere mainly as a result of the evolution of life-forms?

Oxygen became part of Earth's atmosphere mainly as a result of the evolution of life forms, particularly through photosynthesis by early cyanobacteria and plants. This process involved converting carbon dioxide into oxygen as a byproduct, leading to the oxygen-rich atmosphere we have today.


Which gas became part of earth's atmosphere mainly as a result of the evolution of life-forms?

Oxygen became a significant part of Earth's atmosphere due to the evolution of photosynthetic life forms, such as cyanobacteria and plants. These organisms produce oxygen as a byproduct of their metabolic processes, leading to the rise of oxygen levels in the atmosphere over time.


What is soil evolution?

Soil erosion is the process in which topsoil is washed, carried, or pushed away by outside forces. In many cases wind erosion is responsible for soil erosion in dry climates, and water erosion is responsible in wet climates.


How does earth exhibit evolution?

Earth exhibits evolution through the gradual changes in organisms over time as a result of genetic variations, natural selection, and environmental factors. Fossil records provide evidence of past life forms, while the diversity of species and adaptations observed today demonstrate ongoing evolutionary processes. Genomic studies further support the concept of common ancestry and evolutionary relationships among different species.


What percentage of scientists believe in evolution?

According to a 2009 Pew Research Center survey, about 97 of scientists in the United States believe in evolution.

Is natural selection a cause of evolution?

No, natural selection is believed to result in evolution.


What is a macro evolution?

Micro-evolution is not only a part of macro-evolution, it is the same mechanism as macro-evolution. Macro-evolution includes speciation, as a result of continuing micro-evolution.


Do evolution stop?

No. Evolution is the change in allele frequency over time in a population of organisms. This may be the result of stabilizing selection, but is still evolution.


What is often a result of evolution?

Adaptation, divergence and speciation.


What genetic change is always a result of evolution?

Evolution is not a cause of genetic change: it is the effect of genetic change.

It is cancer of the skin and it can come from longterm overexposure to the sun without sunscreen or people can get it from longterm use of tanning beds.


Does convergent evolution result in speciation?

All evolution that results in increasing genetic divergence between subpopulations may result in speciation. That includes convergent evolution: convergence occurs at the phenotypical level, not at the genetic level.


Are genes responsible for evolution?

Evolution is the result of a process called survival of the fittest. Genes are part of the mechanism by which this happens.
