Darwin is basically right, though only to some extent, that species and individuals compete, fight, kill and survival belongs to the fittest. This is one of the most important mechanisms by which life evolves and maintains its quality. As the human society builds upon and is an extension of the ecosystem, does it mean that for the human society to work well, man must apply this mechanism to her/his society also; say, let those who are not skillful enough to land a job starve to death
We may be enlightened with respect to this question through the examination of evolution in an ecosystem in comparison to the human history. Taking the maritime swamp land as an example, the mangrove species Kandelia candle competes successfully over other mangrove species and dominate the area chiefly through the evolution of droppers that other species do not have. The seeds of Kandelia candle grow into seedlings inside the droppers before leaving their mother plant bo
A. a waste of human and natural resources
B. economic dominate over the competitors
C. constant creation of social problems
D. formation of a ever complex society
