Copernicus’s idea and model of the universe was essentially complete in 1510. The publication of his book De revolutionibus orbium coelestium (On Revolution of the Heavenly Spheres) in 1543 is often cited as the start of the scientific revolution. COPERNICAN REVOLUTION

DARWINIAN REVOLUTION Is a biologist who was famously known for his works on evolution and the process of natural selection. He studied Divinity in Cambridge where he met Adam Sedgwick and the naturalist John Henslow
Darwin published his book The Origin of Species in 1589 His book The Descent of Man was so impressive yet very controversial. Charles Robert Darwin
Darwin made Observations on diversity of organisms, fossils, comparison to south American organisms, comparison among the organisms in the Galapagos Islands and adaptation enabling him to develop his theory of evolution by natural selection.
Natural Evolution Overproduction and variation - some species produce many offspring but not all of these young will survive. It means that not all of the offspring do not have the characteristics to survive in the environment. Competition and selection – competition may not or may be direct but the idea is always on the survival of organism. Environmental change – the environment will not adjust for the organism but rather it is always the organism that will change to adapt to the environment .
Human evolution
