Question
Chapter 25.3, Problem 3CC
Summary Introduction
To describe: The reason for the results of Cooper and his colleagues to be surprising with respect to geography.
Introduction: The term “cladistics” can be defined as the differentiation or classification of the species on the basis of evolutionary relationships. Construction of a phylogenetic tree can be done by applying the cladistic approach. In this approach, the characters which are shared or not shared among a number of species, based on the evolutionary change, are represented in the form of a phylogenetic tree.

O Darwin followed the scientific method that was well established in his time. This method was termed determinism and described all natural events as based on physical laws. O Darwin was strictly an observer of natural history. O Darwin kept a careful diary of his travels and experiments but never interpreted any of the results. Darwin was similar to many other scientists of his era in that he speculated on many theoretical ideas inherent in the Victorian philosophy of science. Many of these theoretical ideas were not supported by observation or experimentation. O Darwin was an excellent observer, formed hypotheses from his observations and experimented to support his hypotheses. Darwin also was a theoretical scientist who speculated on challenging problems in natural history.arrow_forward
