  • JAMES: Fifth is James Hutton, a Scottish geologist, who made a significant contribution to the understanding of the geological processes that shaped the Earth. He was a keen chemist but also developed a strong interest in geology. Hutton recognized that the Earth was extremely old. He saw that there was no need for global catastrophes to shape the surface of the Earth. Instead, given sufficient time, the gradual ongoing processes of erosion, sedimentation, and uplift could produce the geological features he saw. This concept became known as the principle of uniformitarianism. Without the concept of an extremely old, and slowly changing Earth, Darwin would not have had the time available for his model of evolution to work. In fact, Darwin specifically applied Hutton's concept of gradual change, or gradualism, to his model of how species evolved
  • Lyell: Lastly, Charles Lyell, a Scottish geologist who demonstrated the power of known natural causes in explaining the earth's history, after being introduced to Hutton's work. He met Gideon Mantell, who had discovered several different dinosaurs in English rocks, and this led him to the serious study of geological history. He traveled widely in Europe, where he observed ancient raised seabed separated by lava flows, and became convinced that Hutton's model of gradual geological change was correct. He collected a large amount of supporting evidence for uniformitarianism and set this out in the "Principles of Geology", a book that had a tremendous influence on Darwin. As well as building on the idea of gradual long-term natural changes as the shaping force of the Earth's surface, Lyell considered the origins of plants and animals, by the time Charles Darwin became interested in natural history, many of the concepts crucial for his thinking had been developed.
  • LYELL: Because of that, you will gonna buy all of us a drink 
  • ALL: HAHAHAHAHA!!
  • CHARLES: So with the influence of other Scientist, Charles Darwin theory about evolution by natural selection has made. So this is it, I will create a power point for this so we are ready for the presentation next week. Thank you guys for your cooperation.
