The observation, identification, description, experimental investigation, and theoretical explanation of phenomena. Such activities restricted to a class of natural phenomena. Theory- a general explanation of natural phenomena, developed through extensive and reproducible observations. The origin of species by means of natural selection (1859) Also called the preservation of favored races in the struggle for life. Some organisms are better and reproducing than others. ******use and disuse is wrong***** (just bc you don"t use a certain body part, does not mean it disappears through generations) Not the only person to come up with this theory. Dr. wallace collaborated with darwin to come up with this theory. Darwin published his work before wallace could which is why he is given the credit.
