Is there any evidence of evolution of animals in modern times?
The Irish Elk, Megaloceros, was the largest deer species that ever lived. The Irish Elk stood up to seven feet tall. The elk's antlers grew up to 12 feet long. Scientists believe the last surviving Irish Elk died around 11,000 years ago. This giant deer has become important to paleontologists to study in the debate over evolution.
If evolution is defined as the adding of genetic information to a species of animals while adapting to its environment, then there is no evidence of evolution. However, some modern scientists are redefining evolution as any mutation that may occur into a given species. This has created a great controversy because other scientists believe that the concept of evolution does not show itself through mutations. Their argument is that many diseases are caused by the mutation of genes, and are most obviously not a positive evolving of a species. In summation, no known species of animals has ever shown an increase in genetic information {DNA} only decreases.
Yes there is. In fact, humans are evolving. It seems that wisdom teeth, the veriform appendix, and possibly the little toe are all becoming or have become vestigial. These started as mutations, and turned out to be viable ones. As such, we are seeing a small but notable increase in the number of people born without a full set of wisdom teeth, and there is indication the vermiform appendix is getting smaller. As to toes, once we ceased being arboreal, it makes sense that a full compliment of prehensile toes (that break comparatively easily on flatlands) become more of a hazard than a benefit.Insects and fish have also evolved within certyain specialized niches. Consider subterranean populations of both of these animals that devovled eyes out of the picture when enough generations had lived in a lightless environment. The key here of course is fast population turnover, so we can see evolution actually working.
What is the name given to a set of controlled observations that test a proposed explanation?
A set of controlled observations that test a proposed explanation are known as an experiment. The proposed explanation is known as the hypothesis of the experiment.
What is the definition of heat energy?

What is the most extinct animal in the rainforest?
Animals are either extinct or they aren't, because extinct means that there is not one individual of that group (species, genus, etc) left. Thus, there is no such thing as a "most extinct" animal. Over the entire existence of the rainforest as we know it, many rainforest species have become extinct.
There are so many animals that have been extinct in the rainforest and most of them haven't been discovered yet - so its unlikely that anybody will answer this question. If you just want an extinct animal, then the Quaggas is a rather strange one.
Well, a Quagga is an extinct zebra with brown fur and stripes only on their belly, back and head. A quagga still existed in the 1800's.
Known types of foxes that are believed extinct include:
Leptocyon - might be considered an ancestor of foxes. It went extinct around the end of the Miocene Epoch about 10 million years ago.
Vulpes riffautae is an extinct species of foxes of the genus Vulpes identified from fossils found in Chad in northern Africa. It also lived in the late Miocene.
Vulpes riffautae is an extinct species of fox of the genus Urocyon. It lived during the Pleistocene.
The Cozumel Fox may be extinct. Its habitat is (or was) the island of Cozumel, Mexico.
The "Falkland Fox" is another name for the Falkland Islands Wolf - which went extinct around 1876. Experts have not decided for certain if it was a fox. If not, then it was at least closely related.
The Sierra Nevada Red Fox was thought to be extinct, but a positive identification was made from a photograph and DNA samples from a bait bag that at least one is present in a remote mountainous area of California. Since the previous last known Sierra Nevada red fox was identified back around 1920 and foxes don't live for over a hundred years, the assumption is that there must be a small population of them somewhere out in the mountains of California.
How do you get all characters on Dino run?
You can't actually get all the characters in dino run, but you can find them in different places. The troodon is your character that can be custimized. The dravidosaurus appears in all the levels. They are the brown large but slow runners that appear in every level. You must jump over them or else you will be attacked by an avalanache that appears every time you stop running.
The triceratops first appear in level 3. After that, you will be seeing them often. They will appear in stampedes and you must jump over them. The parasaurolophus is one of the most helpful dinosaurs. They appear in level 5 or 6. They appear orange and are fast runners. You must jump on them to control them. They will stop at dangerous paths and let you cross safely. The ankylosaurus is very hard to find. They only appear in one level and don't really do anything accept stand there and look pretty. Kinda creepy. They appear only in level 2 and are next to the rocky mountains after you jump off a cliff. The Quetzatlzoatlus is a dinosaur similar to pteradactyls. They are easy to find. In level 5-6 they were actually more common than dravidosaurus. They appeared in all the levels. Jump on them and they will carry you short distances. Argentinasaurus is the largest dinosaur in the game which is the color gray. They appeared in all the levels. they are stuck in tar pits. You can climb on them to get through.
Titanosaurus is another dinosaur that was stuck in the tar pits. They are brown and are smaller than Argentinasauruses. they are even more common. Compsognatidaes are the tiny dinosaurs that appear in all the levels and come in different colors. They can be gobbled up for extra points. There are even earthworms and ducks that appear in every level.
Divide both sides by the lowest common denometer which in this case is 2. So 10/12 = 5/6
How does the kentrosaurus use its body parts to help it eat?
Because of the kentrosaurus's short stature, primarily consumed grass, plants and shrubs lower to the ground. Therefore, the animal used neck and molars to eat.
How does a Thylacine reproduce?
The thylacine no longer reproduces as it is extinct.
However, being a mammal, it engaged in sexual reproduction. This animal was a marsupial. Prior to its extinction, the Thylacine had a gestation period of one month, and the young joeys spent another 3-4 months continuing their development in the pouch. Having several joeys in the pouch would weigh the female down, bringing her abdomen almost to ground level, so after this, they were transferred to a den.
Interestingly, the male thylacine was unique for having a pouch, which was used for protecting its reproductive parts when running through thick undergrowth and scrub.
Did the velociarapter travel in groups?
We can infer they probably were for a couple of reasons. First, they were too small and weak to take down large prey by themselves. Second, raptors, (as they are commonly refered to), could use they're elevated intellect better in groups, to create coordinated attacks.
Does the megalodon shark exists?
This is a controversial question. Do any of us really exist? We can never know, but our existences in this reality, though it may not be the purest reality, is certainly evident since we are able to communicate.
Now, for the megalodon. It is a topic of scientific debate. No one can know for sure if the megalodon existed or exists, because there is unclear and inconstent evidence for it. It may have existed, and could still exist in deep pockets of the ocean known as trenches where humans are unable to observe marine life.
Dodos died out during the late 17th century, when sailors came to the Mauritius Isles and shot them for food and sport. Trained dogs ate the eggs and chicks, so the Dodo was unable to reproduce.
What is there to do at Holderness Coast?
Walk along the beautiful long strip of beach called "Spurn Head" go look its really amazing.
a type of fossil that lived in the western part of United States about 270 million years ago.
