Evolution “is the net change in organisms or a population over the span of many generations.” This change in organisms or populations happens through DNA mutations and reconbination and is passed down to the next generation through...

From Newton's laws to E=mc2, we think we have uncovered the secrets of the universe. But some claim these laws evolve and others point to their human and cultural origins. Might eternal natural laws be human hubris? Or is the mind of God...

We learned about how altruism can evolve in certain species, which involves cooperative behavior among closely-related organisms to enhance the inclusive fitness of the group. But this is also achieved through spiteful behavior towards...
