QUESTION: What is evolution? As it is most famously used, evolution is the process by which an organism becomes more sophisticated over time and in response to its environment. The Theory of Evolution is currently the most popular concept of how life reached its current state.
Charles Darwinâs theory of evolution, as taught at school, is a biological explanation of how creatures have supposedly âevolvedâ or developed progressively through natural selection and variation (now known as mutation) over eons of time from the tiny cell to the largest creatures on earth today.
