recapitulation theory

The notion later became simply known as the recapitulation theory.

The recapitulation theory it is built upon has been discarded by the natural sciences.

The controversy involves several different issues (see more details at: recapitulation theory).

Such a re-enactment, (often called Recapitulation theory), is not supported by scientific evidence.

The Haeckelian form of recapitulation theory is considered defunct.

After doing some early work inspired by the recapitulation theory, Weismann began to study the behaviour of the reproductive cells under the microscope.

The title "New Adam" is emphasised in the Recapitulation theory of atonement.

At the time the Terra Nova expedition sailed, many biologists believed in recapitulation theory.

By comparing different embryonic stages of different vertebrate species, he formulated the Recapitulation theory.

Thus, according to recapitulation theory the hiccup is evolutionarily antecedent to modern lung respiration.

Other theories include recapitulation theory, the "shared atonement" theory and scapegoat theory.

This is the idea propagated by Ernst Haeckel as a source of evolutionary evidence (recapitulation theory).

Recapitulation theory - the theory that "ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny".

Haeckel used embryology extensively in his recapitulation theory, which embodied a progressive, almost linear model of evolution.

MacBride was an active Lamarckian and one of the last great exponents of the recapitulation theory.

During the late 19th century, Ernst Haeckel's recapitulation theory, or "biogenetic fundamental law", was widely accepted.

Ernst Haeckel (1834-1919) became famous for his "recapitulation theory", according to which each individual mirrors the evolution of the whole species during his life.

The recapitulation theory proposes that fetuses use hiccups in respiration -before their -lungs are fully developed.

"When he learned his biology in the 1880's, Lamarck and recapitulation theory were prominent," said Dr. Gould.

It attacks recapitulation theory, as if this is an integral part of current evolutionary theories, when in fact it is now rejected by biologists.

As the survivors of the Terra Nova returned to England several years later, recapitulation theory had begun to be discredited.

In line with recapitulation theory, the model applies equally to the evolution of an individual organism and the evolution of the whole tree of life.

Darwin's theory of evolution and Ernst Haeckel's recapitulation theory were large influences on Hall's career.

(compare: Recapitulation theory)

Although Haeckel's specific form of recapitulation theory is now discredited among biologists, it had a strong influence on social and educational theories of the late 19th century.
