                   Evolution

Evolution is the process by which different kinds of living organism are believed to have developed from earlier forms during the history of the earth (Oxford Dictionary, n.d.). Humans have previously evolved due to processes such as natural selection, mutation, gene flow and genetic drift. 

This website will attempt to explore the evolutionary mechanisms in current human evolution.

Above, you will find links to explore different evolutionary processes in depth, based on my reasearch. In the conclusion page these processes are evaluated together to address the question of how Homo Sapiens might currently be evolving.
