Adaptation of Taxonomy Science Thesis
Since living things are part of an
ecosystem and all the things that
construct it, they are affected by
everything in that system. Weather and
other living organisms could affect living
things.
Successful organisms will manage to
make the required changes and
modifications that allow them to meet the current
conditions. The changes are triggered by modification in the
genetic inheritance to survive. If we look at the organism
that adapted to the condition we will find some differences
from the original population, and the one the adopted would
be the fit.
Reviewing the literature, we have many theories that try to
explain adaption and the way organisms evolve. The natural
selection theory provides some explanations, other theories
use fossils, comparative anatomy, and finally DNA studies to
trace and recognize evolutions.
Biodiversity
When we survey living things we find a massive number of
different things, they have so many similarities and some
differences among them. Scientists were looking for a
system that will allow them to group and classify all those
living things and avoid confusion and conflicts among living
things. Taxonomy was the science that solves this problem.
Taxonomy recognized and identified living things and placed
them in groups from the most to the least level. At each
level, the groups have similarities among them. This was
very useful because of the great number of different
species.
