Evolution Extravaganza

How have humans surpassed the intellectual capability of every living creature on our Earth? How have similar species of isolated birds transition into unique species solely due to time and their environment? The answer to these questions and countless others is evolution. I perceive evolution to mean the improvement of a species over generations due to a variety of reasons such as competition, lack of resources, reproduction, defense, and more. I do believe that the broad concept of evolution has been provided with an immense amount of evidence and it would be extremely difficult to effectively rebut the existence of evolution within our world.

 Hi everybody, my name is Hunter and I am from Topeka, KS. A few of my passions include NFL football, reading, and playing any sport! Ever since I was a child, I have always been an extremely curious individual, but when I entered college, I quickly realized this trait could be far more beneficial than harmful. Within my first year in college, my curiosity surrounding the world around us blossomed into a passion to learn, discover, and inquire about the incredible field of Biology. Perhaps one of the greatest mysteries in the field of Biology surrounds the topic of Evolution.

From this semester I hope to better understand how evolution impacts humans today by learning about both micro and macro evolution!
