BLOG POST 5: CONCLUSION:

HOW WOULD THE WORLD LOOK LIKE IF EVOLUTION STILL CONTINUED UP TO DATE?

This question will enable me to tell the different changes that would be there if evolution still continued.

Life in the coming decades will look different in almost every dimension: how long you live, how you work, what you eat, how diseases are treated, and where your energy comes from. Some of these shifts are already underway, while others depend on breakthroughs still being tested in labs and clinical trials. Here’s what the best available evidence suggests about the world taking shape between now and 2050.

A common belief is that human evolution has ceased, perhaps due to modern medicine and technology. However, humans are still evolving, and in some aspects, this process has even accelerated since the advent of agriculture. Natural selection, where advantageous traits become more common in a population, continues to act on human populations.

HOW WOULD EVOLUTION INTERFERE WITH THE EXISTING HUMAN ACTIVITIES?

This question will enable me to tell the results that evolution would cause to the physical environment that we live in.

Human evolution describes the gradual biological changes that have occurred in our species over vast stretches of time, shaping us into who we are today. However, humans are still evolving, and in some aspects, this process has even accelerated since the advent of agriculture. Evidence of ongoing human evolution is observable in several adaptations. For instance, the ability to digest lactose into adulthood, known as lactase persistence, is a relatively recent evolutionary change that emerged independently in different populations with a history of dairy farming.

Future evolution: from looks to brains and personality, how will humans change in the next 10,000 years?

Humans will almost certainly evolve to live longer – much longer. Life cycles evolve in response to mortality rates; how likely predators and other threats are to kill you. When mortality rates are high, animals must reproduce young or might not reproduce at all.
