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.

What is an an example of macroevolution?

Speciation is an example of macroevolution. The slow transition of land tetrapods to whales, the transition of small, many toed creatures into horses. These are not linear so much as branching progressions with the occasional dead end. Darwin's finches are a modern example of macroevolution by adaptive radiation.speciationBirds are reptiles.


Is macroevolution both a fact and theory?

The terms macroevolution and microevolution were first coined in 1927 by the Russian entomologist Philipchenko. Macroevolution is the term now used to refer to any evolutionary change at or above the level of species, such as the splitting of a species into two or the change of a species over time into another species. Microevolution refers to any evolutionary change below the level of species, and can also apply to changes that are not genetic.Creationists often assert that macroevolution is not proven, even if microevolution is, apparently meaning that whenever evolution is observed it is microevolution, never macroevolution. These claims are considered a misuse of authentic scientific terms. Macro Evolution is a theory; it is also a fact.For more information, please visit: http://christianity.answers.com/theology/the-story-of-creation
