Theory of Evolution A new theory of systematic evo-- i lution refutes the assumption by some scientists that a type of animal, such as the dinosaur, was wiped out suddenly by an earthquake, volcano, glacier, or other catastrophic event. The history of life which can be read from the rocks shows that any type now ex- tinct declined gradually without marked influence from its environj ment. |
