Common Groundwork Of Explanation For Facts And Theory Of Evolution

Like the expanding universe, knowledge holds no boundaries and carries no limits to the extent of its growth. The cumulating knowledge passed from generation to the next, cannot be pinned down to ‘learnt’ or ‘applied information’. Knowledge is what we gain as we carry on with our lives, from the academic stand point to the everyday situations that come across our paths to contribute to our growing selves. Everything we know was once learnt and further developed to contribute to the never-ending cycle. To examine the titles statement, it is important to consider knowledge questions related to the prescribed title; to what extent can we create a common groundwork of explanation for facts and theories in biology and physics? What is it that makes

Since natural selection is considered to be both a fact and theory then there must exist evidence to justify the theory and perpetually verify it, such as the fossil record, selective breeding of domesticated animals, and homologous anatomical structures. A real-life example can be the occurrence of transitional fossils, which I have seen on a school trip to a quarry, demonstrates the intermediary forms that occurred over the evolutionary pathway.

However, from a different perspective, the theory of evolution depends on a gap, in between an unseen specimen that has gone extinct and its evolved offspring. Although a different perspective would initiate a counter-argument over the missing link hypothesis, I personally believe that this criticism does not negate the whole process of evolution as this missing link might be filled up later while discovering more ‘profound truths’. Therefore, natural selection is still a verified groundwork of explanation in biology, but is it so in

Moreover, these extreme social Darwinists believed that problems such as poverty were genetically determined and thus there is no point in helping them, therefore nature has been allowed to eliminate the unfortunate ones. Conceiving the latter arguments critically would need to debate inherited values against nurtured ones (nature/nurture debate), also the determinism/free-will debate. To justify my argument, a personal example of natural selection’s complexity in economies is my grandfather’s tourism company, which was one of the first successful tourism companies established in Jordan due to minimum competition at that time. As we embarked into the 21st century, much technological advancements emerged. Hence, new businesses have become more capable to utilize these technologies and this allowed them to
