A sample from this course

One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Concept of Evolution

The concept of evolution explains how populations of organisms change over generations and how the diversity of life arises from common ancestry. For examination purposes, you must master the meaning of evolution, the levels at which evolutionary change is described, and the major ideas that distinguish scientific explanations of change in living things from older non-scientific views.
