Understanding Evolution: Key Concepts and Evidence from Darwin's Theory

This chapter delves into the foundational concepts of evolution as proposed by Charles Darwin. It explores the mechanisms of species evolution, including variation, adaptation, and natural selection, highlighting the four principles of this theory: variation, overproduction, adaptation, and descent with modification. The section also discusses various types of evidence supporting evolution, such as homologous, analogous, and vestigial structures, along with fossil examples that document the history of life on Earth.
