Intellectual Revolution That Defined Society

Charles Darwin was an English naturalist born in 1809 who developed the theory of evolution by natural selection. He proposed that over generations, species evolve through inherited variations, where individuals with traits better suited to their environment are more likely to survive and reproduce, passing on their genes. This theory revolutionized society by establishing that new species arise naturally from common ancestors, without divine intervention. Darwin's work established evolution as the fundamental concept underlying all of biology.

INTELLECTUAL REVOLUTION THAT DEFINED SOCIETY.

CHARLES DARWIN

DARWINIAN REVOLUTION THAT DEFINED SOCIETY

 Was the first comprehensive and readable synthesis of the history of evolutionary thought.
Originally published in1979.
 Darwin’s revolutionary theory was the new species arise naturally.
 Individuals with characteristics best suited to their environment are more like to survive.

CHARLES DARWIN
 Born on February 12, 1809 , the mount house, shrewsbury, united kingdom .
 Died on April 19, 1882 .
 Home: down house, downe, united kingdom.
 Charles Robert Darwin was an English naturalist, geologist and biologist , best known for his
contributions to the science of evolution. his proposition that all species of life have descended
from common ancestors is now widely accepted and considered a fundamental concept in
science.
 His books are:
 the voyage of beagle
 On the origin of species
 The descent of man

DARWINISM
 is a theory of biological evolution developed by the English naturalist Charles Darwin ( 1809-
1882) and others, stating that all the species of organism arise and develop through the natural
selection of small , inherited variation.
 Stating that all species of organism arise and develop through the natural selection of small,
inherited variations that increase the individual’s ability to complete, survive, and reproduce .
 Natural selection explains how a wide variety of life are form and develop. Genes are existed and
traits are heritable. Meaning, it is passed from parents to offspring.
 Some individuals have traits better suited to the environment than others. These individual have
adaptive traits.
 It is one of the processes that drives evolution and explain the diversity of life.
 If the environment changed rapidly, some species cannot adopt through natural selection.
 natural selection which is the process through which species adapt to their environment.
 Individuals having characteristics that are suited to the environment are more likely to survive
and reproduce and passed their genes on the children.
 And, for those individuals that are poorly adapted to the environment are less likely to reproduce
and the genes are less likely to be passed on to their children.

FOUR COMPONENTS OF DARWIN’S PROCESS OF NATURAL SELECTION:


 VARIATION
 INHERITANCE
 HIGH RATE OF POPULATION GROWTH
 DIFFEREMTIAL SURVIVAL AND REPRODUCTION

THE FOUR KEYPOINTS OF DARWIN’S THEORY OF EVOLUTION ARE:


1. The individuals of a species are not identical;
2. Traits are passed from generation to generation;
3. More offspring are born that can survive, and;
4. Only the survivors of the competitions for resources will reproduce.

Darwin touched the modern-day society:


 Learned about what it is that makes a species thrive and how ecosystem and species become
extinct.
 “We do what we do and think how we think”.
 “ecological niche modeling” determines the likelihood of an organism surviving in a particular
ecosystem.
