Students who may be disinterested or uncomfortable with the science of
evolution often wonder why it is worth their time and effort to
understand. Stated Clearly and Emory University’s Center for Science
Education have joined forces to create this animation addressing these
concerns.
The discovery of biological evolution is among the
most significant scientific findings of the last 200 years. It has lead
us to thousands of new discoveries and is greatly expanding our
understanding of the natural world.
Here we look at 3 mysteries
which were solved by using Darwin’s theory of evolution. The
understanding we have gained is having a dramatic impact on food
security, disease control, and environmental conservation.
