Ideas led at explaining how organism change or evolve over the time became so difficult to
understand, when it came to the evolution of life, a scientist and a philosopher, Erasmus Darwin
proposed a theory which later become theory of evolution. He in the same span of time said that
evolution occurs because of the process called natural selection.

Natural selection is called as the “survival of the fittest” says that the organisms most suited and best
fitted to the environment. And the process through which living organisms are adaptable to change.
And according to Darwin’s conceptions and theories there are some species that follows adaptations
that allows them to survive in the particular habitat and environment, and in the same span of time
others do not. This variation claims that there are some species that varies are the best suited
species to their environment. But there’s a scientist and a theorist, pobiner, said that survival of the
fittest can be misleading cause the fitness refers to the organism’s strength and ability but rather
than the reproduction and survival. So basically, according to Darwin species do not formed they get
evolved over the period of time.

So then there came a scientist and biologist Lamarck, his theory has been called as Lamarck’s theory
of evolution, above mentioned point can be descried through this evidence of Lamarck’s theory that
species just get evolved or rather modify themselves. So, his theory based on the principle that that
how the organism is physically changing such as the example of a giraffe that initially they were short
necked but over the time they for their survival started eating plants so they had to browse higher
and higher on the leaves of the trees, stretches its neck. so that they can have their food that’s the
reason the descendants of the specie are being long necked they didn’t for a new specie but rather
got evolved. As a result of this continue habit for the extended period of time, all the individual
specie, of the giraffe have now front limbs and neck gradually grown longer. So this might explain
the idea that in this mutation occurs not specie get formed but just gradually variations occurs
because of their ancestors in their descendants.
First of all, we define species as a basic unit of classification. And when closely related genesus
combines, they form species upon arguing on the statement that whether advantageous variation
will form a new specie or not. So, they will form a new specie this statement is supported by theories
of 3 reknown scientist Lamarcks, Darwin’s, and Hugo de veries, the former statement is strongly by
de veries theory which is mutation theory of evolution which says that

“New species are formed by sudden and unexpected emergence of alteration and variations in the
defining traits of organisms mating between random organisms when organisms of two different
species mate, they form two different species”

For Example

1)when male tiger mate with female lioness they form tigon.

2)when male lion mate with female tiger they form liger.

3)when male Jaguar mate with female lioness they form Jag lion.
