could you tell me about developmental biology and our links to evolution?? i am horribal at this stuff...
The whole thory has flaws but I'll try to explain it as best I can. In theory there was no life on earth but through geological processes basic organic moleucles formed. These got together through some other really complicated processes and formed the first cells. These then when about their happy little lives for a long time making more little cells. Sometimes when cells reproduce they don't make a perfect copy and a mutation occurs. If its good then the cell is better off then the other cells and survives to pass on its genes. If not, it dies. Over millions of years this goes on with cells forming structures, plants, animals, etc. until you get to us today. Its all based upon Darwins Survival of the fittest where the strong survive to reproduce. If you have questions just post them and I will try to check back to answer them.
Wow that is one of the most amazing things ever if you stop and think about it! I knew it before you said it, but I never actually thought about it deeply and now I am completely amazed with life.
