Physical anthropology, branch of anthropology concerned with the origin, evolution, and diversity of people. Physical anthropologists work broadly on three major sets of problems: human and nonhuman primate evolution, human variation and its significance (see also race), and the biological bases of human behaviour.
The theory of spontaneous generation is the idea that living organisms originated from seemingly non-living beings, or even totally inorganic matter.
Molecular evolution is the study of the changes that occur in DNA and protein sequences over time, and how these changes relate to the evolutionary history and relationships of different species.
According to the neutral theory of evolution, the bulk of molecular variation has no influence on fitness, so random processes are the most likely cause of genetic variation.
When artificial impacts on natural selection have caused a species' color to change, it is known as industrial melanism.
Hugo de Vries, a Dutch botanist and geneticist, first put out the theory of mutation stating that the new species emerge
In-depth inquiries into the ancestry of Homo sapiens, or modern humans, have been done throughout history. One method is the "multi-regional hypothesis of human evolution".
Neo Darwinism is sometimes referred to as the Modern Theory of Origin of Species or the Modern Synthesis theory of Evolution.
The underlying premise of this Equilibrium is that, in a large population with random mating and lack of additional factors like genetic drift, mutation, and natural selection the frequencies of certain genes tends to remain constant from one generation to another.
Pangenesis Theory is one of the Theories of Inheritance given by Sir Charles Darwin. He coined the term Pangenesis with the terms ‘pan’ which means whole and ‘genesis’ which means origin.
Chromosomal analysis can reveal important details regarding genetic diversity in humans, population genetics, and the forces that drive evolution.
According to Colin Renfrew, the application of molecular population genetics approaches to the study of human evolution is referred to as "archaeogenetics."
Organic evolution is the gradual accumulation of genetic changes in populations of organisms over time that results in the transformation of species into new ones.
