Jean Lamarck is best known for his early theory of evolution, which proposed the idea of inheritance of acquired characteristics. He suggested that organisms could pass traits acquired during their lifetime to their offspring, a concept often summarized as "Lamarckism." His work laid foundational ideas for evolutionary Biology, although it has since been largely replaced by Darwinian natural selection. Lamarck's contributions also included classifications of invertebrates and the concept of adaptation to the environment.
