Students are required to know the following;
Charles Darwin, largely as a result of observations on a round the world expedition, linked to developing knowledge of geology and fossils, proposed the theory of natural selection:
• Individual organisms within a particular species show a wide range of variation for a characteristic.
• Individuals with characteristics most suited to the environment are more likely to survive to breed successfully.
• The characteristics that have enabled these individuals to survive are then passed on to the next generation.
Other theories, including that of Jean-Baptiste Lamarck, are based mainly on the idea that changes that occur in an organism during its lifetime can be inherited. We now know that in the vast majority of cases this type of inheritance cannot occur. A study of creationism is not required.
