Has the evolution stoppped over past 50000 years.?If no What will evolution do to us?

Answer 1

it is almost impossible to stop evolution, it cant stop as long as there is life.

Answer 2

(you're gonna get some heated answers from the christians on this subject) lol. No, evolution's not stopped. The problem is that it's effeects are very slow in manifestation. We may see a small change over recorded history. (average height, etc.) but for any major changes, it'd take thousands of years to see the difference. The most accepted theory is natural selection. Genetic traits and abilities will be more or less successful in one's surviving nature. The traits that survive, are passed on to the next generation. It's tough to say what'll become neccessary in the future. But, (it's a scientific fact, not any nazi type criticism) technology will throw a loop for this concept. Eyeglasses (i wear em) wheelchairs, hearing aids, etc. provide assistance to what nature might consider to be weaknesses. This allows the Stephen Hawkings of today, the ability to survive, and contribute some amazing input to the human potential. Who know's?

Answer 3

What do you mean by evolution?
If you mean natural selection, then it is happening all the time.
If you mean goo-to-you, molecules-to-man, then it has never happened.
Dogs breed dogs breed dogs (even a wolf and a Chiwuawua are just dogs).
Natural (or artifical) selection does not involve the creation of additional genetic information. to change from a dog to a cat, or for a reptile to grow wings, would require the addition of new genetic information.
This has never been observed. Mutations to cause evolution, but they do not add genetic information. They they tend to reduce the gene pool.
So the short answer is that evolution never started. And as for 50000 years, that's another (fairy) story.

Answer 4

Umm, what scale of evolution. If you are really technical, you being a product of your mom and dad's genes is considered evolution.

Recent acute evolution: people are less affected by chemicals, toxins, and disease than humans 200 years ago.

What evolution will do to us:

Nothing! You will die before you can observe this. Who knows what random genetic error will bring us.

If you want honest answers:
We will move slower.
We will have faster reactions (due to our dominance on tech).
Our vision will improve.
We will be able to multitask better.
We will become shorter.
Our lifespan will increase.
We will lose our appendix.
We will be able to control our heartbeat and brain activity much like how we achieved control over breathing and blinking.

Answer 5

No it has not stopped. For example, look at average human height. We know it's been steadily increasing during recorded history. That's evolution at work.

Consider our complex social organizations, Our Great Society for example. Social security, welfare, medicare. Consider the security our technology affords us, grocery stores, hospitals, mass transit, for example. All of this has increased our survival. In other words, in a modern society, it's allot easier to survive.

The effect is, people who would not be able to feed themselves or survive the winter 50,000 years ago, today are able to survive, and have children. This general trend creates a softer, less self sufficient species.

Answer 6

HEY DUMBASSS evolution NEVER STOPS !!!!! do you even know what evolution means 'evolution - the changing of a species over a LONG PERIOD of time'

Answer 7

This answer is going to sound mean, and i'm sorry, but i don't think we will know until it happens. However, evolution is always occuring and happening, it just doesn't stop.
