I dont understand what this means??
It's been described so many times and we could provide links but you don't want to read links. So to explain:
The species of mosquito that inhabits the London Underground is unique because speciation has taken place.
The peppered moth is another famous example in that they used to be white but then start of the industrial revolution created a dark sooty environment for it so it evolved to become a much darker colour to avoid being eaten by predators. As the use of coal reduced and the environment started to get cleaner again, the peppered moth started to become white again.
Antibiotic resistance is an example of the evolutionary process in action. A population of bacteria will be severely reduced if you take antibiotics but some bacteria that are more able to withstand the antibiotics survive. These then spread and each this this happens the hardiest bacteria survive until you start getting strains that are completely resistant. This is why you always need to finish your prescribed course of antibiotics even though you may feel better again.
Genetics, DNA sequencing of different populations and animals can only be understood because of the theory of evolution.
Human and animal physiology, and neurophysiology too, can be understood in terms of how we evolved. There are vestigial organs that we no longer need but which we still retain because there is no, or very little cost to having them.
The fossil record is entirely consistent with the theory of evolution. We can see how species have evolved over geological time because of the fossils that they leave. And that is the time scale we are talking about for large changes and speciation to occur because they require many small steps.
I could provide links but you don't want to read them, or you can google it yourself and find out. There are many more examples out there.
