Answer 7

Evolution is a very interesting topic. For starters, it's a widespread belief that humans evolved from chimpanzees or a similar primate. There's more to it though. Evolution isn't just about humans, it's about everything. It doesn't just take place from generation to generation, it takes place when an animal adapts to a change in the habitat. For example, American Cliff Swallows have evolved shorter wings, which help them evade cars when they are flying low.

Another example is how a species of trout has evolved, and not because it was forced to. Tomcods are very resistant to pollutants, because some of them were already resistant when their habitat was polluted, they ones who weren't resistant died, and the ones who were prospered and bred. Now, over 96% of the tomcod population in that area is able to survive in polluted water with ease. So evolution isn't just a theory, it's real.
