C“Charles Darwin” Copernican Revolution
Darwin's greatest contribution to science is that he completed the
Copernican Revolution by drawing out for biology the notion of
(1809- 1882)
nature as a system of matter in motion governed by natural laws.
H Human Evolution
Darwin simply ploughs ahead and argues that we humans are
like other animals and hence are the produce of evolution
A
through selection
Adaptation
A Darwinian adaptation is an organism's feature that was
functionally designed by the process of evolution by selection
R
acting in nature in the past.
Revolutionary Insight
Darwin's revolutionary theory was that new species arise
naturally, by a process of evolution, rather than having been
created—forever immutable—by God
L Legacy
The legacy of Charles Darwin is “The Origin of Species may
have introduced the theory of evolution”
E Edinburgh University
At 16 he studied medicine at Edinburgh University.
S Susan Elizabeth Darwin
Charles Darwin elder sister
D- Descent Of Man
In 1871 Darwin published The Descent of Man, which
argued that human beings shared a recent common
ancestor with the great African apes
A-
Artificial Selection
Darwin used Artificial Selection as an analogy to natural
selection; he compared artificial to natural varieties,
hereditary variation in nature to that in the breeding
farm; and he also compared the overall effectiveness of
R
the two processes.
Royal Society
Darwin was awarded the Royal Society's highest award,
the Copley Medal, at the anniversary meeting on 30
November 1864.
W William Erasmus Darwin
William Erasmus Darwin was the first-born son of
Charles and Emma Darwin
I Imaginary Illustrations
Darwin's work is his use of ““imaginary illustrations”” to
show that natural selection is competent to produce
adaptive, evolutionary change.
N Natural Selection
The theory of natural selection was explored by 19th-
century naturalist Charles Darwin. Natural selection
explains how genetic traits of a species may change over
time.

“Isaac Newton”
(1643-1727)
I
Infinitesimal Calculus.
A mathematical discipline focused on limits, continuity,
derivatives, integrals, and infinite series. Isaac Newton
and Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz independently developed
the theory of infinitesimal calculus in the later 17th
century.
S Skills
He had a meticulous and systematic approach to
organizing and categorizing information, knowledge,
experiments, and ideas.
A
Apple Tree
The very tree from which an apple fell and caused
Newton to ask the question: 'Why do apples always fall
straight down to the ground? ' The tree first put down
roots around 400 years ago. For at least 240 years it has
been shown to visitors as Isaac Newton's apple tree.
A
Atomic Model
Isaac Newton and Robert Boyle, both 17th century
physicists, laid the foundation of modern atomic theory.
C
Cambridge
Where he was a Lucasian professor
N
Nature of Light
Isaac Newton argued that the geometric nature of
reflection and refraction of light could only be explained
if light were made of particles, referred to as corpuscles
because waves do not tend to travel in straight lines
E
English Mathematicians
Isaac Newton was the greatest English mathematician of
his generation
W \
Woolsthorpe
The manors house where newton’s born
\T
Trinity College Cambridge
The school where Isaac entered college and it is the old
school of his uncle.
O\
Optics
A Treatise of the Reflexions, Refractions, Inflexions and
Colours of Light is a book by English natural
philosopher Isaac Newton that was published in English
in 1704.
\N Nicolas Fatio de Duillier
He was a close friend of Isaac Newton
