divided EN The word atom comes from the two Greek affixes, a-tom; a is the privative affix meaning deprivation; tom comes from the Greek temno (ÏÎ­Î¼Î½Ï) meaning â¦slit, slash, cut. Therefore, atom means the non-slit (further). Another example for the affix tom is the Greek word tomos (ÏÏÎ¼Î¿Ï) which also comes from the aforementioned affix tom and means volume (of a book) exactly because the volume of a book is slit in its pages.
Darwinism is a theory of biological evolution developed by the English naturalist Charles Darwin (1809-1882) and others, stating that all species of organisms arise and develop through the natural selection of small, inherited variations that increase the individual's ability to compete, survive, and reproduce.
Evolution is change in the heritable characteristics of biological populations over successive generations.[1][2] Evolutionary processes give rise to biodiversity at every level of biological organisation, including the levels of species, individual organisms, and molecules.[3]
