Popularly, a mere conjecture or guess in science, a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world, An explanatory idea that has been proven over time with support. Gaps in the fossil record disprove evolution. Doesn"t mean that evolution is wrong, it means that the evidence is restricted, understanding the source of the evidence. Can take difference appearances and forms, the natural organic material is changed into an inorganic solid material, Organic material (e. g. bone) is replaced by minerals from surrounding soil. Only a percentage of fossil records or found and preserved. Evolution and religion are incompatible false- talking to scientists and profs: follow evolution and the scientific method but are religions and believe in their creature. Trying to explain the natural world as it exists now and in the past through science and natural evidence. Scientists will always debate how evolution occurred- not if it occurred, it is a debate on their analysis on the fossil record.
