Abstract

Understanding the mechanisms underlying evolutionary adaptation is a central goal in modern biology. This article proposes a simplified yet powerful model to represent evolutionary development: Δ(x) · Probability. Here, Δ(x) refers to any environmental change or variable, and the multiplication with probability reflects the stochastic nature of adaptive events. This principle reflects the idea that evolutionary change emerges not only from the presence of variation but also from the influence and intensity of changing environmental pressures.<br>The author acknowledges the use of OpenAI’s language model for assistance in drafting certain sections of this workl
