Darwin’s Theory of evolution
Darwin's Theory of Evolution is the widely held notion that all
life is related and has descended from a common ancestor.
It states that random genetic mutations cause changes in
organisms which allow them to adapt to their environments
better. These beneficial mutations are preserved as they aid
survival. This process is called “Natural selection”.
Survival of the fittest
What is evolutionary psychology?
Evolutionary psychology is
grounded in the theory that as
genes mutate, those that are
advantageous are passed
down through a process of
natural selection. Evolutionary
psychologists attempt to
explain how certain human
behaviours are the result of
the development of our
species over time.
