Describe Lamarck’s idea about how organisms evolved. Use the giraffe’s neck as an example.
Murljashka [212]

Answer

Lamarckism, a theory of evolution based on the principle that physical changes in organisms during their lifetime—such as greater development of an organ or a part through increased use—could be transmitted to their offspring.

Lamarck believed that the stretching elongated the giraffe's neck, which became a useful characteristic and was passed onto future generations. This resulted in the length of the giraffe's neck increasing over time. It is now commonly accepted that Lamarck's ideas were wrong.

What modern process is thought to be similar to the way crust formed before plate tectonics began? The principles of convection
dlinn [17]

The formation of the Hawaiian Islands.

Explanation:

A modern process that is believed to be similar to the way crusts formed before the advent of plate tectonics about million of years ago is the formation of the Hawaiian Islands.

The Hawaiian Island is a series of volcanic Island which forms as result of volcanic activities on the oceanic plate.

  • Hawaiian Islands forms from a hotspot that supplies the ocean floor with sufficient magma as it rides.
  • This is similar to the volcanic activities that initially sculpted the surface of the earth.
  • During the early history of the earth, our very hot and restless planet poured out lava to the surface through which the crust formed.
