Evolution

Evolution is the process by which living things change over time. It’s like a big puzzle where pieces are added and changed to make an even cooler picture. For example, some animals have adapted to their environment over time to better survive. Giraffes have long necks so they can reach food high in the trees and polar bears have thick fur to stay warm in cold temperatures. Evolution also happens to plants. For example, some flowers have adapted to different kinds of pollinators over time, like bees or butterflies. They may change in color or size so that the pollinators can easily find them. Fun Fact: The average human nose is believed to have evolved over time to help us smell our food better.
