First week of class - Introduction

Hye guys so for the first week of class is the introduction class. So Assoc. prof. Dr Parameswari Namasivayam will be our lecturer for this course. In the class we were introduce to the topics that we will learn, how the marks given and when the test will be held. Then Dr. Parames gave us a simple lectures about biology evolutions and Charles Darwin. In this lecture we get to explain the historical development of the theory of evolution and know how to use appropriate terminology related to evolution such as evolution, fossils, vestigial structure, biodiversity etc.

We also get to know the Ideas on Evolution Prior to Darwin by Aristotle, Jean Baptiste Lamarck, Charles Lyelland many more. Different scientist have different ideas on evolution for example Lamarck said evolution occurred by the inheritance of acquired characteristics. Organisms are subject to a force which moves them from simplicity to complexity and environmental forces fine-tune them to fit their biological niche more efficiently

While  Darwin proposed and demonstrated that all species of life have evolved over time from common ancestors through the process he called natural selection.

This is basically what we all learn in the first week . :)
