science geneticsWhat aspects of the scientific method can be identified in Darwin's work?
Also question is, what scientific claim does Darwin challenge?
The theory of evolution challenged the idea that God is the designer of the universe and that the beauty, order and complexity of the universe is evidence of this (the design argument ).
Accordingly, does evolution follow the scientific method?
Evolution does not attempt to address the origin of the universe. The scientific method is based on observation, experimentation and verification and these have consistently supported the Darwinian theory of natural selection.
natural selection. The process by which organisms that are better suited to their environment than others produce more offspring. As a result of natural selection, the proportion of organisms in a species with characteristics that are adaptive to a given environment increases with each generation.
