The theory of evolution by Charles Darwin was sparked by his travels in South America especially but also was supported by his observations of plants and animals in England when he was writing his book. On aspect of evolution is the natural variety of types within a species, some of which are more adapted to the environment than others.

Evolution refers to the change in the structure of an organism with the passage of million of years.

Explanation:

Evolution is the change in the structure of an organism with the passage of million of years. Evolution occurs due to two reasons, first from genetically while the other from adaptation to the environmental conditions. In genetically, the change in structure of animal comes from their parents whereas changes occurs due to adaptation of an organism in order to survive in the harsh climatic condition of the environment.

significant amounts of nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, and other pollution

explanation:

passenger vehicles are a major pollution contributor, producing significant amounts of nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, and other pollution. in 2013, transportation contributed more than half of the carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxides, and almost a quarter of the hydrocarbons emitted into our air.

measuring light intensity

light meters can be used to measure light intensity. the meter is held at the soil surface and pointed in the direction of the maximum light intensity, and then the meter is read.

errors can be made when measuring light intensity by accidentally shading the light meter. the reliability of the results can be checked by taking many samples.
