- CLamarck was a French Naturalist who lived during the 18th century, he created the thoery on how evolution might have occurred.
2Lamarck Theory of acquired characteristics attempted to explain how evolution might have occurred. This theory had two basic assumptions which were:
- AThe Law of Use and Disuse.
- BThe Law of inheritance and acquired characteristics.
- CThe Law of acquired characteristics and natural selection.
- AThe Law of Use and Disuse.
3The law of use and disuse states that part of an organisms body that are use frequently will not become as developed as parts which are used less or not at all. Those parts which are used will eventually disappear.
