Fri | 10/02/2015 | 11:01 Evolution in Action It is estimated that on the Earth, there are between 4 and 40 million plant and animal species. This overwhelming variety came about through evolution in the course of geological history. Over time, many organisms vanished, leaving nothing but fossil traces. Such traces increased continuously, and some of them have been preserved to this day. However, many species have not yet been discovered, while others are threatened with extinction. The idea of a common origin of all life goes back to Charles Darwin.
