Evolution

'''Evolution- One of the most hotly debated theories. Monkey to Man? or Man to Monkey?'''

Adaptive Evolution
The theory that as circumstances change over time, so do the organisms in the are of the changing circumstances. Colder winter, furrier coats on animal's offspring next winter. There is almost no debate about this theory. The hotly debated theory that man evolved from a monkey. Some say yes, some say no. There is no clear concensus. In addition, religion and science conflict greatly; in some cases it is simply a matter of belief.

Charles Darwin
The scientist who had the original idea of evolution was Charles Darwin. He first

theorised it in his Red Notebook during a trip to the Galapagos Islands. He noticed the birds on each island were similar, but each were adapted to some degree to make it easier to obtain the food source availible in their individual closed habitats. He formulated a theory that perhaps they were all from the same species originally, and that they had become more adapted to their enviroment as time went on. Darwin is now known as the "Father of Evolution".
