Unit 8 Reflection

This unit that we had completed talked about evolution, and how it affects the population, as well as the whole planet Earth itself. Evolution comes in many forms, such as artificial selection or natural selection. Other things or events can also speed up evolution, such as a bottleneck event, where a selected amount of species survive. Overtime, evolution helps species adapt to the constantly changing environment, and allow even the least competent a chance to survive, or repopulate themselves. Evolution can even have things here and there that would create an entirely new type of species. Evolution also had effects on Earth, and brought it to what it is now. Without it, no life could possibly exist on the hot molten Earth that was still forming for 4.6 billion years. It was after that, which allowed living things to survive on Earth. No life could possibly change without evolution, even a world where everything was the same would crumple under one single mistake.

There is not a lot of questions that I have about this unit, but the main ones that I would like to talk about are these: are most events regarding evolution random, or are these all a part of a certain cycle?

While we were studying this unit, we had done a survey about our conflict style. When I took it, I had discovered that I had a passive and assertive style. This means that I am the type that would let other people "win" and also the type that would assess the situation and find the best solution for both sides. What I could work on would be to not be lazy, and not let others take credit over my work, or do most of the work.
