Long neck in giraffe |
A. Lamarckism 3. Long neck in giraffe
1. Lamarck used the example of the giraffe’s neck to prove his theory on organic evolution.
2. He believed that due to the use and stretching of the neck over a some time the neck grew longer to adapt to the ecosystem it was present in.
B. Darwinism 1. Industrial melanism
1. Industrial melanism was an evolutionary effect that was seen in several arthropods during the industrial revolution time.
2. They developed and procured dark pigmentation as a result of pollution in the environment.
3. This supported the theory of natural selection which had been proposed by Darwin.
C. Dexterity 2. Opposable thumb
1. Dexterity refers to the skill of using our hands to perform tasks and other essential activities.
2. Thumb dexterity is a significant evolutionary advantage that helped develop our fine motor skills and the opposable thumb is an example.
