This session continues discussing evolution from the biological perspective. Evolution is believed to have occurred as a long sequence of undirected changes. However, no mechanism has yet been identified to explain the development of complex organisms based on this process. The mechanisms suggested—natural selection and mutations—are not supported by the fossil record or by studying living organisms. The popular phrase “survival of the fittest” is examined, then the focus shifts to biochemistry and patterns in species at the molecular level.
