What is Evolution?
“Biological (or organic) evolution is change in the properties of groups of organisms over the course of generations. ….The word evolution comes from the Latin evolvere, ‘to unfold or unroll’—to reveal or manifest hidden potentialities.” by permission, Douglas J. Futuyma (2005), Evolution, publ. Sinauer Association. Also see Evolution: Fact, Theory, Controversy.
