Title Evolution is not a slow, gradual process Degree of recognition International Media name/outlet Archy Newsy Media type Web Country/Territory United Kingdom Date 13/04/2023 Description Imagine that we fast-forward life on Earth like a movie. If we are to believe Darwin, we see the living beings on earth changing slowly and gradually. However, according to American paleontologists Niles Eldredge and Stephen Jay Gould, the organisms in that film remain unchanged for a long time, after which they quickly transform. “That idea came about through the discovery of fossils,” explains Leo Beukeboom, professor of Evolutionary Genetics at the University of Groningen. “Scientists discover fossils of species A and species B, but not always of the intermediate variant.” URL https://www.archynewsy.com/evolution-is-not-a-slow-gradual-process/ Persons Leo Beukeboom Title La evolución no es un proceso lento y gradual Degree of recognition International Media name/outlet NotiUlti Media type Web Country/Territory Bolivia, Plurinational State of Date 12/04/2023 Description Imagina que avanzamos rápidamente la vida en la Tierra como una película. Si vamos a creer a Darwin, vemos a los seres vivos en la tierra cambiando lenta y gradualmente. Sin embargo, según los paleontólogos estadounidenses Niles Eldredge y Stephen Jay Gould, los organismos de esa película permanecen sin cambios durante mucho tiempo, después de lo cual se transforman rápidamente. “Esa idea surgió a través del descubrimiento de fósiles”, explica Leo Beukeboom, profesor de Genética Evolutiva en la Universidad de Groningen. “Los científicos descubren fósiles de las especies A y B, pero no siempre de la variante intermedia”.

Title Even over evolutie: het is geen geleidelijk proces Degree of recognition National Media name/outlet NEMO Kennislink Media type Web Country/Territory Netherlands Date 11/04/2023 Description Stel je voor dat we het leven op aarde als een film versneld afspelen. Als we Darwin mogen geloven, zien we de levende wezens op aarde dan langzaam en geleidelijk veranderen. Volgens de Amerikaanse paleontologen Niles Eldredge en Stephen Jay Gould echter blijven de organismen in die film lange tijd onveranderd, waarna ze in korte tijd snel transformeren. “Dat idee ontstond door de vondst van fossielen”, verklaart Leo Beukeboom, hoogleraar Evolutionaire Genetica aan de Rijksuniversiteit Groningen. “Wetenschappers ontdekken namelijk fossielen van soort A en van soort B, maar lang niet altijd van de tussenvariant.”
