Natural Selection
The statement by Charles Darwin that became the basis of social Darwinism is "survival of the fittest." This phrase was later adopted to promote the idea that individuals and societies could be classified as superior or inferior based on their ability to succeed in the struggle for survival.
Charles Darwin believed that animals become extinct due to a combination of factors such as changing environments, competition with other species, and inability to adapt to new conditions. According to his theory of natural selection, species that cannot survive in their changing habitats will eventually become extinct.
Charles Darwin was a British naturalist ,a person who studies the natural world. His job was to learn as much as he could about living things he saw on the places he landed in on his voyage. The blue bobby in the Galapagos Islands, in Ecuador is a great example of what he had to acheive.
Yes. Darwin is a fish. The clues that led to the realization that he was a fish is: 1: In one episode Darwin woke up from a fishbowl 2: If you remove his legs and arms, you have a perfect replica of a fish 3: The thing sticking out of Darwin's head is a fin if you look closely 4: And if you notice, when Darwin is not talking his lips are always puckered up like a fish. Fin + sleep in fishbowl + Head of a fish = Darwin/Goldfish
Social Darwinism justified ruthless business practices by arguing that only the strongest businesses would survive. This ideology allowed companies like Carnegie Steel to pursue aggressive tactics such as monopolies, cutthroat competition, and harsh labor practices in the pursuit of maximizing profits without moral hesitation.
Imperialism became associated with Social Darwinism as proponents believed in the idea of natural selection and survival of the fittest being applied to societies. This provided a justification for the domination of one group over another, leading to the belief that stronger nations had a right to expand and dominate weaker ones. This ideology was used to justify the exploitation and control of colonies by imperial powers.
Charles Darwin became a very famous man for his dicoveries. He kept studying the variations of animals and adaptions they had.
Darwin left the Christian Church and became an Atheist.
Charles Darwin had 10 children, 8 of whom survived to adulthood. Darwin's family was quite high achieving; 3 became Fellows of the Royal Society and another became a senior politician.
biology and geology
The scientist Alfred Russel Wallace actually studied the idea of natural selection before Charles Darwin. Wallace and Darwin later became research colleagues, but Darwin became more well known after publishing "The Origin of Species".
Charles Darwin was at home when he started thinking about evolution. He had come from an expedition around the world which had provoked his thinking on the origin of man.
Lyell became one after Darwin was heavily influenced by his theory about gradual geological processes.
Darwin, capital of the Northern Territory, was named after a scientist, though not directly. Originally named Palmerston, the city was renamed Port Darwin in 1911, which became just "Darwin". The harbour on which Darwin is located had been named Darwin Harbour by the Captain of the Beagle, John Lort Stokes, who named it after his former shipmate, Charles Darwin, after Stokes discovered it in 1839.
Well he invented the theory of evolution. Some speculation though as to if he denounced his theory before his death and became a Christian.
I'm not certain that Wallace was sidelined; he was more of a field biologist that Darwin - apart from Darwin's voyage on the Beagle. Darwin's publications before his work on natural selection had made Darwin very well known and celebrated. Wallace, was pleased to be associated with Darwin and without Darwin, the theory of Natural Selection would not have been taken so seriously. Darwin's publication of Origin of the Species sealed his fame; it became a best seller and Darwin became strongly associated with the theory. Wallace agreed that Darwin deserved the credit as Darwin had done most of the research behind the theory. Wallace and Darwin corrosponded throughout their lives and Darwin considered Wallace one of the great thinkers on evolution.
Charles Darwin came up with the Idea of Evolution by means of Natural Selection, this eventually became a scientific theory.
