Charles Darwin traveled to the Galapagos Islands and observed that there were several different types of species of finches and tortoises. These different species of animals were contained to separate islands, all tailored fit for each island. This gave Darwin the idea that species evolve over time into new species.

The modern theory of evolution was developed by Charles Darwin, an amateur English naturalist, in the 19th century. He proposed that all of the millions of species of organisms present today, including humans, evolved slowly over billions of years, from a common ancestor by the way of natural selection.

Answer: I wrote this just now. Hope it helps!

I don't agree with the death penalty for most cases. I only agree with the death penalty for cases in which there are multiple convictions, such as someone who murdered 20 people, or someone who caused a terrorist attack that killed 10 people. However, for cases such as someone who murdered one person, I do not agree with the death penalty, because there are cases where people are wrongfully convicted, but those are much rarer in instances of multiple convictions.

I think the threat of death penalty is not successful in discouraging people from committing murder, because we have the death penalty now and people commit murder at a very high rate. What we need is more mental health resources so people with disorders and mental health issues can get proper help BEFORE committing a horrible crime. I think the death penalty is only constitutional if the criminal is convicted with killing multiple people on purpose, such as a mass shooting, terrorist attack, bombing, or something of that measure.

I hope this helps! :) Have a good day, I have to go so this is all I can answer for now, but good luck on your assignment.

Radda [10]

Answer:

placebo

Explanation:

We often hear about placebos being used in pharmacological tests. A placebo is an inert substance, sometimes called a "sugar pill," which can be given in place of the drug being evaluated.

Scientists commonly use placebos to study the effects of a new drug. This is done by providing the drug to a number of people who participate in the trial, while the rest receive another substance that lacks medical or therapeutic properties. Test participants do not know if they received the placebo or the actual drug. Often, even doctors know which participants ingest the drug and which not until the end of the pharmacological test.
