  1. neo-lamarckian

    Neo-Lamarckian refers to a modern extension of the ideas proposed by Jean-Baptiste Lamarck in relation to biological evolution. It emphasizes the idea of inheritance of acquired characteristics during an organism's lifetime, rather than solely through genetic mutation and natural selection. Neo-Lamarckian theories also consider environmental factors as influencing the traits that may be hereditary. These theories challenge some traditional Darwinian concepts and have been largely incorporated into the broader field of evolutionary developmental biology. However, they remain controversial and not universally accepted in the scientific community.
