Muddiest Point!!!

Hey guys! This unit has been going pretty well! The only thing I am confused on is the differences between Darwin and Lamark and what they each discovered about evolution. Thanks!

  1. Darwin ideas:
    -natural selection
    -overproduction
    -struggle for existence
    -variation (like the finches beaks)
    -shared common ancestors

    Lamarck's ideas:
    -inborn desire for change
    (meaning if an animal wanted to grow a tail, it would be able to grow a tail.)
    -law of use and disuse
    -inheritance of aquired characteristics

    **both Darwin and Lamarck knew nothing about DNA.

    hope this helps!

  2. Hey! Kaitlyn pretty much got everything but they also both knew that things get things from common ancestors and they also knew about variation and evolution
