COURSE DESCRIPTION
Course Level Bachelor's Degree
Course Type Elective
Course Objective The main purpose of the course of Scientific Inquiry and Evolution is to discover of aspects of scientific inqiry with Evolution Theory, to understand of Defination of evolution, development of evolution concept, the proof of evolution idea, and to give some evidence from daily life for evolution.
Course Content Aspects of Science and Scientific Inquiry. Theory of Evolution and aspects of scientific inquiry. Definition of Evolution: Evolution of the concept of development. Evidence supporting evolution. Darwin's Theory of Evolution and the New Synthesis Theory. Inorganic evolution. Evolution of plants and animals: Adaptation, Variation, Variation of the resources: mutation, recombination, migration, genetic variation was established: Crossover experiments, artificial selection, natural selection, habitat, seasonal-Physiological Etologic-Mechanical-Insulation (Gametic Mortality) Mechanisms. Postzigotic Isolation Mechanisms: Zigotic Mortality, Hybrid Living failure, Hybrid Sterility, Enriching these subjects with examples from daily life and associating them with the Science Education Program applied in 5th - 8th grades.
