Charles Darwin profoundly influenced scientific thought with his theory of evolution by natural selection, presented in "On the Origin of Species" in 1859. His ideas challenged the prevailing views of creation, encouraging scientists and thinkers to explore biological diversity and the mechanisms of species adaptation. Darwin's work laid the foundation for modern Biology, inspiring further research in genetics, ecology, and anthropology, and promoting a more scientific understanding of humanity's place in the natural world. His impact extended beyond science, influencing philosophy, religion, and social theory, thereby reshaping various fields of thought.
James Hutton and Charles Lyell were the two scientists that helped Darwin recognize how old the Earth is.
Darwin observed a variety of species on the Galapagos Islands, including finches, tortoises, and mockingbirds. These observations were instrumental in his development of the theory of evolution by natural selection.
There are always some who lack manners and who are unable, or unwilling, to understand the views of others. It is quite possible that Charles Darwin was once called 'the ape man', and if so, that reflects on the people who used that phrase, not on Darwin, who has been called one of the great thinkers of the nineteenth century.
The two papers of Charles Robert Darwin and Alfred Russel Wallace dealing with this subject were read to the Linnean Society on July 1, 1858. This was the first and most complete theory of evolution by natural selection that the world heard of, though there were minor differences between Darwin's and Wallace's theory. ( there were others who had parts of the theory correctly elucidated, but they were not complete in their presentations, or they only had passing acquaintance with this subject ) On November 22, 1859 Darwin published ' On The Origin Of Species By Means Of Natural Selection, Or The Preservation Of Favored Races In The Struggle For Life '
When Darwin described certain organisms as "more fit," he referred to their ability to survive and reproduce in a given environment. Fitness in this context is not solely about physical strength; it encompasses how well an organism's traits and behaviors enable it to adapt to its surroundings, compete for resources, and evade predators. Thus, "fitness" is a measure of an organism's relative success in passing its genes to the next generation compared to others in the same population.
Finches, amomg others...

The only cyclone to actually hit Darwin in 1974 was Tracy. Others came close, but never actually seriously threatened the city.
How did Thurgood's acts effect others?
they effect yourseif and others
By having the awards, the act that receives the awards is clearly idiotic. I think that the Darwin Awards are just a way of publicizing the stupidity of certain activities and furthermore benefiting others with such knowledge.
Someone else would have made the same conclusions. Darwin was building on the work of others. Alfred Russel Wallace also developed the same theory, independently of Darwin so, eventually, it would have been written up and published.
why does an organizational hierarchy inevitably have an effect on our interactions with others and give examples

It will effect everyone. That is why they are so important.
Darwin, Derwood, sometimes Dennis. I'm sure there are others but I can't recall them at the moment.
he believed that was fixation of species and the ones that were best adapted would survive but others become extinct
