The lecture of Louise Mead(who works for National Center for Science Education) in class Thursday 1/24 was very interesting. It was about evolution(change in species over time) and evidence for evolution which includes: biogeography, comparative anatomy, molecular biology, fossil record, and Developmental biology. Biogeography is the study of the distribution of biodiversity over space and time. Comparative Anatomy is the study of similarities and differences in the anatomy of organisms. Molecular biology is the study of biology at a molecular level. Fossil Record is the collection of preserved remains or evidence of a living thing left in a rock. Developmental biology is the study of the process by which organisms grow and develop.It was interesting how so many people believed that evolution was fake. With all the evidence that goes along with evolution it would be difficult to deny evolution. Personally I accept evolution and agree with it 100%.
