Zusammenfassung
Wenn wir das Wort „Evolution“ hören, denken wir oft an Charles Darwin und sein berühmtes Werk „Die Entstehung der Arten“; oder wir haben die Entwicklung des Menschen und seiner nächsten Verwandten, der Menschenaffen, im Sinn. Evolution ist jedoch nicht einfach etwas, das vor langer Zeit geschehen ist. Evolution geschieht hier und jetzt und ist von großer Bedeutung für unser tägliches Leben. Wenn beispielsweise bei einem Krebskranken die Chemotherapie keine Wirkung mehr zeigt, liegt das wahrscheinlich an der Evolution der Tumorzellen. In diesem Fall kann Evolution für uns zur tödlichen Gefahr werden.
