binomial system:
Carl Linnaeus:
Linnaeus introduced a simple binomial system, based on the combination of two Latin names denoting genus and species; similar to the way that a name and surname identify humans.

Charles Darwin:
Charles Darwin:
English Scientist
HMS Beagle - Galapagos Islands
Finches
Came up with his theory of Evolution.
"Survival of the fittest"
All species of organisms arise and develop through the natural selection of small, inherited variations that increase the individual's ability to compete, survive, and reproduce.
Slide 10 - Slide
Selection:
Selection:
With natural selection, this happens due to the natural development and evolution of the ecosystem. When any kind of competition occurs those that are best adapted to the new situation survive to reproduce.
With artificial selection, this happens due to human influence.
Slide 11 - Slide
Typical answer to darwin question:
How do bacteria become resistant to antibiotics
there is variation in the population bacteria due to mutation.
some bacteria are resistent against the antibiotics and will have a higher chance of survival.
and are therefore capable of reproduction. leading to an increase of resistant bacteria
