Please understand that EVOLUTION is not a true theory.Every SINGLE assumption and rule that evolution has put forward has been proved wrong ,not only by paleontological evidence ,but also by evidence from all divisions of science.
JUST think of it this way:
A changes to z very slowly through time .ok.But then,A has to pass through all 25 letters to get to Z.This means that WE SHOULD FIND More fossils of these INTERMEDIATE species rather than the complete organisms that have @evolved@.But in fact none exists.
Evolution is just a rumor that has been proven wrong but has been dragged out unnecessarily to the 21st century.
Lamarck proposed that by selective use or disuse of organs, organisms acquired or lost certain traits during their lifetime. Then passed onto offspring-leading to change in species
That organisms pass on traits acquired in their lifetimes. It was rejected in favour of Darwinian evolution, in which species and not individuals evolve, but Larmarckism is valid to a point where epigenetics is concerned.
Darwin read the book Lamarck wrote and said that he did not get one idea from it as it was ludicrous in content. So, Lamarck would be the one scientist that did not influence Darwin according to Darwin.
According to the biological species concept, when the new species no longer can interbreed with the ancestral species, or with the population that it has been geographically isolated from long enough to have allele change significantly enough to prevent interbreeding.
the actions of organisms as they use or fail to use body structures.

Lamarck's theory is based on acquired characteristics. In other words if you break your arm your future children will be born with broken arms.
Lamarck did. Neodarwinism theorises that species evolve when gene frequencies change, not individual organisms. Larmarkism is true for epigenetic inheritance, favourable and unfavourable characteristics alike.
Lamarck's theory of inheritance of acquired characteristics influenced Darwin by introducing the idea that organisms could change over time in response to their environment. Although Darwin ultimately rejected Lamarck's mechanisms, he was inspired by the concept of adaptation and the idea that species are not fixed. This led him to explore natural selection as a more robust explanation for how species evolve and adapt. Thus, while Darwin diverged from Lamarckism, he acknowledged its role in shaping his thoughts on evolution.

Darwin and Lamarck had fundamentally different views on how species change over time. Lamarck proposed that organisms could acquire traits during their lifetime and pass those traits to their offspring, a process known as inheritance of acquired characteristics. In contrast, Darwin introduced the theory of natural selection, suggesting that species evolve through the differential survival and reproduction of individuals based on heritable traits that confer advantages in a given environment. This marked a significant shift toward understanding evolution as a gradual process driven by natural mechanisms rather than intentional adaptations.
Jean-Baptiste Lamarck
Not well supported by the evidence and basically just assertion. Lamarck asserted that acquired characteristics, such as muscles developed during one's lifetime, were heritable. They are not. He also asserted that an organism had a " desire " to evolve. This was also not true.

Lamarck proposed that organisms could acquire traits during their lifetime and pass those traits to their offspring, a process known as inheritance of acquired characteristics. In contrast, Darwin introduced the theory of natural selection, suggesting that individuals with advantageous traits are more likely to survive and reproduce, leading to gradual changes in species over generations. Thus, while Lamarck emphasized individual effort and adaptation, Darwin focused on environmental pressures and genetic variation.
