Evolution: Abrupt Changes
December 22, 2016 at 8:57 pm
Hello everyone.

Could someone please explain how evolution happens on an abrupt scale? I have always been taught that evolutionary changes are abrupt, but scientists have discovered that species almost "leaped" into another species. Could one please explain how this happens?

Also, how could the abrupt change of a species make such a species split off into two types of animals? I thought it was just speciation.
