The process that Darwin described as "descent with modification" is the process of evolution.

"Descent with modification" is one of the fundamental ideas behind Darwin's theory of evolution. According to Darwin, the characteristics of an organism are inherited. Offspring with inherited characteristics which allows them to compete best with the limited resources in the environment will survive. Organisms will pass the traits providing an advantage to survive and reproduce to the next generations. Over time and generations, the traits providing reproductive advantage will become common among the polpulation. This will lead to change in populations over generations in a process called the "descent with modification".

Gnoma [55]

The fourth way chemicals can enter the body is by injection. It can happen when a sharp device (like a needle) punctures the skin and injects a chemical (or virus) directly into the bloodstream, however it is unusual in most industries.

<h3>What in biology is the blood stream?</h3>

The phrase "bloodstream" refers to the flow of blood within an organism's body. In humans, the circulatory system, which is made up of a complicated network of arteries and veins, is where blood travels.

<h3>Where does the bloodstream reside?</h3>

The blood is gathered in veins and moves to the right atrium and right ventricle while being depleted of oxygen. The pulmonary circulation starts here: Low-oxygen blood is pumped from the right ventricle into the pulmonary artery, which divides into progressively smaller arteries and capillaries.
