AHAHAHAHAH.

Phyletic gradualism is a macroevolutionary hypothesis rooted in
uniformitarianism. The hypothesis states that species continue to adapt to
new challenges over the course of their history, gradually becoming new
species. Gradualism holds that every individual is the same species as its
parents, and that there is no clear line of demarcation between the old
species and the new species. It holds that the species is not a fixed type, and
that the population, not the individual, evolves. During this process, evolution
occurs at a slow but constant rate; for this reason, it is known as evolution
by creeps (as opposed to punctuated equilibrium, or “evolution by jerks”)

Evolution by Creeps... as opposed to Evolution by Jerks.

For some reason, I find that RIDICULOUSLY amusing. <<

Things I run into while cramming in MORE Cell to Organism studying.

Now, see, look what you've gone and done.

I'm picturing a Terran unit staring at the Zerg creep and muttering "Jerks..." XP
