<h2>Evolution </h2>

Explanation:

  • According to Lamarck's theory of evolution, fossils are the direct evidence of evolution and nucleotide evidences are the direct evidence of molecular evolution
  • This theory also states that organs which are used in priority will develop and the organs which are not used by priority will disintegrate
  • Lamarck said that vestigial organs in different organisms are the direct evidence of use and disuse of organs
  • This was not correct because organisms develop new characters according to their need in environmental conditions, these new characters are developed by character displacement and allowed by natural selection and not by Lamarck's theory
  • According to survival of the fittest the individuals which have superior genotype will be more acclimatized for the changing environmental conditions and the individuals with inferior genotype cannot maintain themselves according to the changing environmental conditions thus eliminated
  • The individuals with superior genotype are most fit for the changing environmental conditions thus survive well and gets opportunity to reproduce
  • Every individual of a population have a selection pressure which decides that which will get opportunity to thrive well or will be eliminated from the population, this kind of selection pressure is called natural selection
  • Natural selection promotes best fit genotype according to the changing environmental conditions and eliminates the other genotype thus leading to genetic drift

However, a mature male gametes known as sperm but it is commonly known as spermatozoa.

A: Population
If a group of one certain species are living in the same area they are a population. The same goes for humans, we are the same species and when we live in the same area we say we are part of a population. That’s why you would hear things like “the population of massachusetts is 2million” or whatever it is.
