4)+Does+evolution+stop+with+an+Ideal+form?


 * Question:** Does evolution stop with an ideal form?
 * Claim:** Ideal forms are never reached, this is due to changing environments. Organisms are constantly changing through mutations.

A. Environments are constantly changing. this affects the organisms because they constantly have to change in order to survive. B. This constantly changing results in a change in the dominant organism. Stronger organisms that are more adapt to the environment will most likely survive. ("survival of the fittest"). This cycle happens all the time. C. There may just be a less number of African Mariogolds than French because the rabbits are eating all of the African Marigolds, which leaves a small amount left. D. The Earth will never stop changing, therefore an ideal form will never be reached. However, if the earth does stop changing in the future an ideal form will be reached because organisms won't have to change in order to adapt to their environment.

This model shows how organisms adapt to survive. We showed this process with the French and African Marigold. When the environment changes, natural selection occurs and the mutated organism (African Marigold) is "ideal" to the environment. However, this changes when a predator is introduced into the environment.
