evolutionspan>: Evolution is a process of gradual development in a particular situation or thing over a period of time. a crucial period in the evolution of modern physics. = development. Biological theory that animals and plants have their origin in other types and that the distinguishable differences are due to modifications in successive generations. It is one of the keystones of modern biological theory. In 1858 Charles Darwin and Alfred Russel Wallace published a paper on evolution that revolutionized all later biological study. The heart of Darwinian evolution is the mechanism of natural selection. Surviving individuals, who vary (see variation) in some way that enables them to live longer and reproduce, pass on their advantage to succeeding generations. In 1937 Theodosius Dobzhansky applied Mendelian genetics (see Gregor Mendel) to Darwinian theory, contributing to the new understanding of evolution as the cumulative action of natural selection on small genetic variations in whole populations. Part of the proof of evolution is in the fossil record, which shows a succession of gradually changing forms leading up to those known today. Structural similarities and similarities in embryonic development among living forms also point to common ancestry. Molecular biology (especially the study of genes and proteins) provides the most detailed evidence of evolutionary change. Though the theory of evolution is accepted by nearly the entire scientific community, it has sparked much controversy from Darwin's time to the present; most objections have come from religious leaders and thinkers (see creation science). See also Hugo de Vries, Ernst Haeckel, human evolution, Ernst Mayr, parallel evolution, phylogeny, sociocultural evolution, speciation. human evolution parallel evolution sociocultural evolution

evolutionspan>: In Darwinian terms a gradual change in phenotypic frequencies in a population that results in individuals with improved reproductive success
evolutionspan>: 1 Change in allele frequency in a population over time This (reductionist) denotation represents the minimum phenomenon which biologists will, when questioned, admit fits the term ``evolution'' and cannot be covered completely under ``adaptation'', ``variation'', or the like The means by which the allele frequency changes occur are the subjects of a number of theories, such as natural selection and genetic drift 2 The descent of all living organisms from a common ancestor or a relatively small set of common ancestors This is the non-reductionist formulation of evolution(1)
