Welcome to /m/evolution, for all discussion relating to Evolution.

Evolution is a process of gradual change that takes place over many generations, during which species of animals, plants, or insects slowly change some of their physical characteristics. All life on Earth shares a common ancestor, just as you and your cousins share a common grandmother, and it is beautiful.
