Evolution was not discovered. It started as an explanation by Charles Darwin, in 1838, to explain the differences between animals on the mainland with animals he encountered on islands that were VERY similar with their mainland cousins but had modified traits and characteristics to allow them to survive in environments that their mainland cousins could not.Darwin published his theory of evolution with compelling evidence in his 1859 book On the Origin of Species, overcoming scientific rejection of earlier concepts of transmutation of species. By the 1870s the scientific community and much of the general public had accepted evolution as a fact. However, many favoured competing explanations and it was not until the emergence of the modern evolutionary synthesis from the 1930s to the 1950s that a broad consensus developed in which natural selection was the basic mechanism of evolution. In modified form, Darwin's scientific discovery is the unifying theory of the life sciences, explaining the diversity of life.

When was evelution discovered?
Evolution is not real but Charles Darwin came up with the theory around 1830.
Who discovered the evolution of man?
Charles Darwin & Alfred Russel Wallace first proposed natural selection and evolution. The actual process of modifying plants and anilmals had been known for centuries as it is used by farmers to create new breeds of animals and crops.
What is direct evidence of evolution?
direct evidence is the observation of evolution as it occurs. We have discovered novel genes conferring an advantage in an environment in which the ancestral population lacked those genes entirely. One example is flavobacterium that evolved nylonase enzymes. Antibiotic resistance is another example.
What scientific approach was used to develop evolution?
The Scientific approach used to develop evolution, was when Charles Darwin Noticed the Similarities Between us and Chimps/Gorillas.Also when Darwin first Discovered the many different varities of finch, this Helped put together Charles Darwins Idea of what evolution was all about.By Alistair MarshallP.s Please Give credit atbeaches1@hotmail.co.uk
What is the difference between evolution and theories of evolution?
Evolution is a process, theories of evolution are theories which explain that process

Charles Darwin the 500 pound giant tortoise?

In what ways was Darwin an important scientist?
he discovered natural selection and the theory of evolution
Who created Helix?

Who discover of the theory evolution and natural selection?
No discovered it, it is a proposed theory by Charles Darwin.

When was evelution discovered?
Evolution is not real but Charles Darwin came up with the theory around 1830.
How did Charles Darwin discovered evolution?
Charles Darwin expanded a common theory of evolution by noting the course of natural selection. He was able to study the categorization of plants and animals species and the beginning of genetics.
Who discovered sun?
In evolution, the sun was discovered by the first of the human evolutionary stages to develop eyes, who was intelligent enough to recognize light and objects. This man is not known. Probably an ape man. In creationism, the sun was discovered by Adam, the first man. If you are asking who discovered that the sun was the center of the solar system, then ask it. If you are asking who discovered the sun was round, ask it. Be more specific.
