I got 6/7 but I do not agree with the answer I got wrong, see if you can guess which one it is?

[spathiphyllum]

Was it number 7, regarding religion?

[vetuste_ennemi]

I'd guess "change in one's lifetime".

[maggiebee]

I got 6/7 and my wrong one wasn't the one regarding religion.

[spathiphyllum]

That's the one i got wrong, V_e


"Evolution can cause an individual to change during their lifetime. True or false?"

I got this wrong. I said this is true, because in my opinion, it can.

[jackthehat]

It'll have been this one; "Evolution results in progress; organisms are always getting better through evolution."

7/7 here.

[Toorak]

7/7 for me

[spathiphyllum]

I wouldn't expect anything less from a lady of your calibre jack ;)

evolution is improving the genes from generation to generation so it stands to reason that you cannot evolve during a life time. The last question just offers an opinion: "FALSE: Evolution is not about the origins of life, but how animals and plants change over time. People of many different faiths and levels of scientific training see no contradiction between science and religion." - wrong x N

[spathiphyllum]

How can we 'evolve' from monkeys if we're actually just spawns of Adam n Eve?

[spathiphyllum]

I agree TTT, i thought that may be the ticket

[wiltsman]

I got 6/7 as well. Was it question 2 that you disagreed with? It's the one I got wrong.

[ToraToraTora]

Evolution is not always improving as JTT correctly points out. Genetic dead ends are curtailed all the time, usually, in nature at least a fauklt fails to breed and thus that genetic material fails to get passed on. I often wish that was the case in many humans.

[spathiphyllum]

Evolution has stopped due to natural selection not being a thing anymore due to health and safety and idiots being made popular and smart people being pushed to the back.

[ToraToraTora]

yeah but we still have the Darwin awards spath.

[spathiphyllum]

That's correct we do.. they're the worst of the worst
