bethany; i know that the theory of evolution is the idea that homosapiens evolved into what we are today.

# data[].attributes.body
bethany; i wonder how people have come to understand this theory in its entirety

- the theory of revolution shows the changes in a species over a period of time
- it also has to do with natural selection, causing the more "fit" characteristics to last thus changing the characteristics of the species

- how has intelligence evolved over time in humans

bethany; i learned that species evolve due to natural selection and the idea of "survival of the fittest".
- disgust allows for protection from risks and diseases, and mothers were in charge of this and they were better at this for the protection of their children.
- disgust is more commonly found in strangers as we do not know them; this could have been a way that humans were able to evolve (there was a study done to see in which scenarios people were more likely to be disgusted)

From what I remember the Theory of evolution is the idea that people/species evolve over the decades. Many say we came from monkeys and there evolved to who we are today; humans.
- A scientist who studied this theory was Charles Darwin.

Organisms have evolved through generations to fit their environment.

How did behavior evolve to fit today's society?

What does the theory of evolution have to do with human behavior? Do the fact that people/ species evolve have an affect their lifestyle and behavior?

All living things come from one organism; however that connection hasn't been made yet. Human beings are descendants from primates or form of primate and have evolved to better suit our environment.

kainani
- the evolution of disgust can be seen through disgust
- disgust is felt more with strangers since we don't know them; example: people ranked the order of people they would feel most comfortable sharing a toothbrush with
- disgust is more pronounced in females since they have to protect both themselves and their children

How did humans become so complex? Was it a result of environment or genetics that changed over time via mutations or other factors?

- Evolutionary psychology attempts to explain psychological traits or behaviors as adaptations.
- If the brain can change itself dramatically during the course of life, boundaries between modules are erased.

It states that living things come from a common ancestor and over the years those ancestors have evolved via natural selection. As the world changes organisms are tested with the changing environments and overtime those who can't withstand the environment and those who can pass on their genes allowing for a change in a population's allele frequencies, leading to evolution.

-Organism adapt to their environment called differential fitness
- Stronger genes are adapted and the less ones die out

I wonder whether if human behavior goes through evolution or natural selection similar to how physical traits change over time. I also wonder what allowed for the development of human consciousness.

I learned that in order for something to be considered as evolutionary trait it has to follow certain conditions.
BBC conducted an online experiment to test whether disgust is a behavior that developed through evolution and the results suggested that it did because it fulfilled all of the necessary conditions, such as:
being consistent throughout all cultures, and how disgust should be more pronounced in females.

I do know that the theory of evolution propose the idea that through survival of the fittest and through natural selection, the members of a species who are able to overcome environmental struggles get to reproduce and pass down those attributes in order to better help and benefit the future of the species through time and reproduction.

What I know about the theory evolution is that scientists came up with the theory that apes ended up evolving into humans.

# data[].attributes.body
What I wonder is how come apes arent evolving into humans anymore. And how is it that apes learned to actually speak.

Woman may feel disgust for something more strongly because they have the need to protect their children. (However, I wonder if this applies to women who don't have children?)

# data[].attributes.body
- organisms that adapt better to a new environment have a better chance of surviving
_ disgust evolved in us as a way to protect ourselves from diseases

how is it that the human race was the only species on the planet abe to develop intelligence, but not other species.
