Certainly, we already understand many aspects of sacrifice in terms of evolutionary biology.
You couldn't ask for a worse correlation in terms of evolutionary trends.
The play offers, among other things, a challenge to Wilson's view that altruism, as a consciously motivated action, can be completely accounted for in terms of evolutionary theory.
Many features of H. habilis appear to be intermediate in terms of evolutionary development between the relatively primitive Australopithecus and the more-advanced Homo species.
In terms of evolutionary theory, the process of paedomorphosis suggests that larval stages and developmental phases of existing organisms may give rise, under certain circumstances, to wholly new organisms.
Contemporary scientists hold that human physical variations, especially in those traits that are normally used to classify people racially skin colour, hair texture, facial features, and to some extent bodily structure must be understood in terms of evolutionary processes and the long-range adaptation of human groups to differing environments.
We found no difference in terms of evolutionary rate between C domain and all other domains.
The areas that control laughing lie deep in the subcortex, and in terms of evolutionary development these parts of the brain are ancient, responsible for primal behaviours such as breathing and controlling basic reflexes.
Exposure to examples from human health in terms of evolutionary concepts may help students looking toward a career in the health professions come to understand the unique insights of an evolutionary viewpoint.
Conformity can have profound ramifications for individual fitness and group dynamics; identifying the exact source responsible for animals' behavioural adjustments is essential for understanding animals' learning biases and interpreting cross-species data in terms of evolutionary processes.
At the same time, however, he assumes that his own pursuit of biological science and his quasi-philosophical reflection on biology, morality and religion are not: they are relevantly autonomous, and so are not themselves to be explained away in terms of evolutionary instincts and rationalizations.
