Answer:

Thermal energy

Explanation:

The book is pushed which then slides over a table and eventually comes to stop. From Newton's first law of motion, we understand that a body comes to rest or is set into motion when an external unbalanced force acts. Here initially the book was pushed which set it into motion but the book come to stop. This means frictional force acted in the opposite direction which stopped it. The kinetic energy transformed into thermal energy (heat).

Evolution is the change in habits, hereditary and physical characteristics of a species over various generations in response to environmental conditions. Evolution lead to adaptation, the nature selection of the fittest and elimination of remaining.

Evolution may produce variety and diversity in response to mutation, genetic drift and other genetic variation. These changes may pass to offspring and may express them more in one group of population.

Evolution also explain the unity among organisms by explaining their shared characteristics. This refers to their common ancestors.
