RESPONSE#5 TOPIC: 

As done earlier, send your response to three students--you can send them to the same students you sent your previous responses to, or you can choose them at random from the class WebCT email list.

Option 1: Explain how your understanding of Darwinian evolutionary theory has changed or been enhanced by reading Darwin's actual book: that is, how has your reading modified your ideas about Darwin and evolutionary theory learned from previous high-school classes, other college classes, or perhaps religious studies?  Your response should indicate that you understand Darwin's theory.

Option 2:  On page 43 of our edition, Darwin says that "We behold the face of nature bright with gladness..."  Respond to this passage.  Your response should indicate that you understand Darwin's theory.
