PolarNik [594]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

they considered valid but a certain idea of acquired characteristics being inherited was rejected

Explanation:

his theory was that if the environment demanded a need or use of a structure in an organism it developed it in response to demand leading to natural use or disuse of structures which he said that these new structures would be passed to their offspring leading to emergence of a new species. scientists accepted that the environment has a role in directing phenotypic changes in an individual taking a body builder for example since his muscles will become huge due to continuous use of the muscles in exercises

but scientists rejected his theory of these acquired characteristics were inherited since phenotypically acquired characteristics that do not affect the genotype of an individual can't be inherited

crimeas [40]
Miller Urey experiment mimics the environment we had for earth billion of years ago. They put in inorganic molecules and came out with organic molecules. Other scientist thought that they messed up their experiment, but once other scientists recreated and tested. They saw that Miller and Urey were correct. And that helped them see that the origin of life can come from simple cells.

Darwin realized that the often exquisite fit of species to their environment is primarily the result of
bagirrra123 [75]
Natural Selection.
An easy and important way to remember this is by thinking of a species - let’s say a bright white moth. For ages, these moths have survived beautifully, matching perfectly with the white tree bark they live on, until one day, a smoky building begins pumping its soot into the air. This air begins to change the color of the tree bark to black and the once hidden white moths are now plainly visible to birds who eat them easily. Fortunately, every now and then a moth is born who is darker than the rest - black as soot even. And so, the birds keep eating the white moths but missing the soot-colored ones. As time goes by, the soot-colored moths produce more and more similarly colored moths, who are well hidden from the birds AND after enough time, the only moths that remain are soot-colored. This is why so many species “fit” exquisitely into their environment. They have ALL adapted in some way similar to the soot-colored moth.
