The basis for all science, be it evolution or the study of how squeaky noises annoy people, is evidence. Darwin's primary evidence for evolution by natural selection was morphological homology; physical similarities between species. Modern evidence for evolution by natural selection is vast and includes a rich fossil record, well understood geologic evidence, radioisotopic evidence, as well as a host of genetic evidence from protein homologies to complex molecular systematics. All evidence for evolution converges on the singular observation that all organisms can be organized in a nested hierarchy much like a family tree; a Tree of Life.
What else can I help you with?
Can natural selection exist with out evolution?
Perhaps not, but evolution can exist without natural selection.
In evolution survival of the fittest refers to?
In evolution, natural selection is often called survival of the fittest.
What was Charles Darwin's contribution to science?
his development in science is that he created the natural selection
What principles is not part of Darwin's original theory of evolution by natural selection?
Random processes are not part of the theory of evolution by natural selection.
Is natural selection same as survival of the fittest?
According to evolutionary theory, natural selection is the principle that directs evolution.
Is natural selection a cause of evolution?
No, natural selection is believed to result in evolution.
Can natural selection exist with out evolution?
Perhaps not, but evolution can exist without natural selection.
What is another word for Darwin's theory of natural selection?
Evolution by natural selection.
Darwin's theory of evolution by natural?
Evolution by natural selection.
Which type of natural selection prevents evolution?
Natural selection directs evolution; it cannot stop or prevent it.
How are evolution and natural selection related?
Natural selection is one of the mechanisms that shapes adaptation and enables evolution.
Is evolution a natural selection?
Natural selection explains the process of evolution: evolution by natural selection. It basically means that species with the highest fitness (survival rate) will live, and be selected by nature for the characteristics they possess that make them more apt to survive. Because of natural selection, evolution occurs.
In evolution survival of the fittest refers to?
In evolution, natural selection is often called survival of the fittest.

What has the author George C Williams written?
George C. Williams has written: 'The pony fish's glow' -- subject(s): Adaptation (Biology), Evolution, Human evolution 'Plan and purpose in nature' -- subject(s): Adaptation (Biology), Evolution, Human evolution, Natural selection, Evolution (Biology) 'Natural selection' -- subject(s): Natural selection 'Adaptation and natural selection' -- subject(s): Adaptation (Biology), Natural selection
Which is more likely to be true natural selection or evolution?
Evolution, of course. Evolution can happen without natural selection in some cases; drift, flow. Generally though, natural selection causes evolution and then, by definition, would come first.
