It was a clever move of natural selection itself.

This is a model (natural selection) of the theory of evolution.

It's a powerful way of solving intractable problems using natural selection.

So it works. But not only that, if you think about how natural selection works, then it turns out that natural selection would only make sense in such a relational universe.

Darwin himself, in his autobiography, tells the story of coming up with the idea for natural selection as a classic eureka! moment.

In biology, Darwinism gained acceptance, promoting the concept of adaptation in the theory of natural selection.

Species evolve, Darwin said, through natural selection the random selection, through competition, of biological traits favorable to survival in a world of scarce resources.

And, as with the cow, there's a mixture of evolutionary design, designed by natural selection itself, and intelligent design more or less intelligent design and redesigned by human beings who are trying to redesign their religions.

I'm a biologist, and the central theorem of our subject the theory of design, Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection.

That is, natural selection works on properties, like fitness, which are about relationships of some species to some other species.

Its full title was On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life.

Given that human psychology has developed through a sometimes uneasy balance of natural and sexual selection, evolution and psychology influence and interact with each other.

However, chemistry cannot fully describe the process since it does not contain concepts such as natural selection that are responsible for driving evolution.

Darwin had already made most of his major psychological discoveries even before he identified natural selection as the mechanism of evolution but he waited 35 years before publishing his findings.

The 1859 publication of Darwin's theory in On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life is often considered the central event in the history of modern biology.

And what Gruber found was that Darwin had the full theory of natural selection for months and months and months before he had his alleged epiphany, reading Malthus in October of 1838.

Darwin explained that such qualities are propagated and enhanced over generations, through the exertion of choice, the influence of love and jealousy, and the appreciation of the beautiful in sound, color, or form. Indeed, while natural selection is blind, sexual selection has an eye for beauty although the nature of beauty is always in the eye of the beholder.

Social Darwinists interpreted natural selection to mean that any humanitarian effort to improve the condition of the poor would impede the progress of the human race by burdening it with an excess of drones.

Henri Bergson, with his L'évolution créatrice (1907), was one of the first to propose evolution is creative and cannot necessarily be explained solely by Darwinian natural selection.

Capitalism advanced the human condition, said Schumpeter, through a perennial gale of creative destruction, which he likened to a Darwinian process of natural selection to secure the survival of the fittest.

In population ecology, debate over group selection was brief but vigorous by 1970, most biologists agreed that natural selection was rarely effective above the level of individual organisms.

Darwin s vision of the world deeply influenced biology in the twentieth century, despite persistent questions posed by factors such as lateral gene transfer, neutral evolution, and chaotic bottlenecks in natural selection.

Morgan found many of the most interesting changes in living things have been largely discontinuous with past evolution, and therefore did not necessarily take place through a gradual process of natural selection.

And one of the things that we're studying is how natural selection might be acting now to shape this use of interaction patterns this network of interaction patterns to perhaps increase the foraging efficiency of ant colonies.

And what I find deeply troubling in this book is that he seems to be arguing that if you want to be moral, if you want to have meaning in your life, you have to be an Intelligent Designer you have to deny the theory of evolution by natural selection.

You take a problem that you can't solve with a pure mathematical answer, you build an evolutionary system to try multiple tries at guessing, you add sex where you take half of one solution and half of another and then make new mutations and you use natural selection to kill off not as good solutions.

In a sense, sexual selection is the psychological extension of natural selection. But, instead of gaining an advantage from traits that enhance one s ability to survive, one gains an advantage from qualities that potential mates have evolved to find appealing.

Widely publicized in recent years by Oxford evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins, the new synthesis unites Darwin s theory of natural selection with Mendelian genetics, which explains heredity.

Time taken to publish Darwin had his basic theory of natural selection by which to work by December 1838, yet almost twenty years later, when Wallace's letter arrived on 18 June 1858, Darwin was still not ready to publish his theory.

Darwin s vision of the world deeply influenced biology in the twentieth century, despite persistent questions posed by factors such as lateral gene transfer, neutral evolution, and chaotic bottlenecks in natural selection. But recent genetic research unequivocally refutes this worldview.

In 1976, the biologist Richard Dawkins identified the unit of Darwinian selection as the selfish gene.

False information, such as counterfeit goods, jeopardizes the competition based selection process.

Initial selection of Afghan civilian air traffic controller trainees is complete, as training is about to be initiated.

But when you look at the natural gas we have it could very well be the bridge to natural gas, because you have plenty of natural gas.

It started in 1908, when the Wright brothers flew in Paris, and everybody said, Ooh, hey, I can do that. There's only a few people that have flown in early 1908. In four years, 39 countries had hundreds of airplanes, thousand of pilots. Airplanes were invented by natural selection.

Eclectic foxes are better at curbing their ideological enthusiasms.

In general, a higher percentage of alumni on the board is associated with a higher ranking, increased selectivity, and a larger endowment.

State of nationality of a natural person

It is its natural manure.

The extensive use of artificial insemination in domestic animals has helped in increasing the selection intensity on the male animals.

This is our landscape of food.

But normal is merely average.

Instead, the distribution is log normal.

Darwin gained extensive experience as he collected and studied the natural history of life forms from distant places.
