Answer:

Most of the scientists worldwide do not accept this theory.

Explanation:

Lamarck's theory states that acquired traits can be passed on from parents to offspring. This theory can not be sufficiently substantiated by indisputable scientific evidences hence it is not accepted by majority of scientists worldwide.

Since science is empirical and the theory is mostly based on vague speculations rather than concrete evidence, it was long rejected by many biologists.

This theory suggests that all life forms will gradually evolve from simple to complex organisms while the simple organisms gradually disappear. This is not the case.

Describe how the particles of two substances interact when mixed. Be sure to discuss the activation energy and how the particles
Charra [1.4K]
A reaction mechanism must ultimately be understood as a "blow-by-blow" description of the molecular-level events whose sequence leads from reactants to products. These elementary steps (also called elementary reactions) are almost always very simple ones involving one, two, or [rarely] three chemical species which are classified

It is common knowledge that chemical reactions occur more rapidly at higher temperatures. Everyone knows that milk turns sour much more rapidly if stored at room temperature rather than in a refrigerator, butter goes rancid more quickly in the summer than in the winter, and eggs hard-boil more quickly at sea level than in the mountains. For the same reason, cold-blooded animals such as reptiles and insects tend to be noticeably more lethargic on cold days.

Thermal energy relates direction to motion at the molecular level. As the temperature rises, molecules move faster and collide more vigorously, greatly increasing the likelihood of bond cleavages and rearrangements as described above.
