Sentence examples for evolution to proceed from inspiring English sources

"Although there is agriculture and transmission of wealth, there is still as much room for evolution to proceed as in other animals," says Courtiol, whose team reports its findings online today in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

In other words, traits are heritable and genetic correlations do not prevent evolution to proceed (note that ecological and physiological constraints are specified in the model processes, though).

Future research should clarify the mechanisms governing local adaptation in these maize populations, as well as investigate the potential for adaptive evolution to proceed in landrace populations in response to climate change.

Is there something special about California that permitted this rapid adaptive evolution to proceed in light of the fact that Raphanus hybrids elsewhere have proven to be evolutionary deadends?

The theoretical basis for this hypothesis is that every gene possesses a modular arrangement of 5' CREs that control temporal and spatial patterns of expression, and that these regions are less subject to the negative pleiotropic effects constraining coding changes, allowing adaptive evolution to proceed at a higher rate [ 10].

Eigen's seminal work and subsequent, increasingly sophisticated analysis showed that the error threshold, that is, the minimal fidelity that is required for mutations to be fixed and, accordingly, for evolution to proceed, is relatively low, in the range of 1-10 errors per replication cycle (the exact number remains a matter of debate) [ 31- 34].

The evolution had to proceed.

Does evolution tend to proceed slowly and steadily or in quick jumps?

The reduced opsin expression in cave populations, combined with a lack of evidence for loss of functional constraint, supports the view that adaptive evolution tends to proceed via changes in cis regulatory regions rather than via changes in the coding sequence of structural genes [ 47, 48].

Nonetheless, it seems unlikely that human actions would have triggered divergent evolution in vertebrate populations, especially in those species with long generation times in which evolution is expected to proceed at a relatively slower pace than species with short generation times [ 17, 18].

Cathodic hydrogen gas evolution is considered to proceed at flaw sites in the barrier layer oxide, leading to high localized current densities that result in high cathodic potentials.
