- When Darwin wrote On the Origin of Species, he spent a significant amount of time on a topic he considered to be (in his words) “one special difficulty” to his theory: eusociality. Explain why eusociality constitutes a “difficulty” to the theory of evolution by natural selection, and how evolutionary biologists have been able to explain its evolutionarrow_forwardLamarck proposed that evolution occurs through the following basic steps: Organisms are born with certain traits. Over the course of an organism's life, these traits gradually change due to pressures in the environment. The changes that occurred during an organism's life are passed on to its young. This idea is similar to current understandings of how evolution works, but it is not quite correct. Which of the following situations is a counterexample that disproves Lamarck's proposed pattern of how evolution occurs? A. Even though the ability to fly would be useful to snakes, snakes cannot spontaneously grow wings. B. Dolphins and whales have become hairless because the fast movement of the water removes all the hair. C. A person who is a championship bodybuilder does not have children who are naturally muscular at birth.arrow_forwardWhat is evolution, explain in detail while using Darwin and lamarcks theories as examplesarrow_forward

On the blank before the statement, write L for Lamarck, D for Darwin or B for both. _____ 1) An organism directs its own adaptations because of an inborn urge to be perfect (that is, to be better suited to the environment). _____ 2) Individuals do not evolve, but populations do. _____ 3) Individuals in a population exhibit variation in their traits, such that no two individuals are exactly alike. _____ 4) Many different kinds of living things are adapted to their environment. _____ 5) Members of a population who are better adapted to the environment have higher chances of survival and reproduction. _____ 6) Parents pass on their traits to their offspring. _____ 7) Species change gradually over many generations. _____ 8) Traits that an organism acquired during its lifetime can be transmitted to its offspring.arrow_forward
