About evolution
Evolution is a theory that asserts that all types of animals and plants have their origin in other already-existing types and that the obvious differences are due to modifications in later generations. More specifically, biological evolution is descent with modification on a small-scale (changes in gene frequency in a population from one generation to the next) as well as large-scale (the descent of different species from a common ancestor over many generations). Ultimately, evolution helps us to understand the history of life.
