An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : dbkwik.org associated with source dataset(s)

Biological evolution is said to follow several different patterns over time. Factors such as environment and predation pressures are said to have different effects on the ways in which species exposed to them evolve. Evolutionary biologists have labeled these differing patterns as Divergent, Convergent and Parallel Evolution. Creationists claim that the evolutionary progressions have not been observed, and that these different developmental pathways are merely post-hoc explanations intended to accommodate observations to the theory of evolution. __TOC__ Image:Evolutionary trends.jpg
