APPENDIX Z34:
Punctuated equilibrium*
from Wikipedia
“Punctuated equilibrium (also called punctuated
equilibria) is a theory in evolutionary biology which
proposes that most species will exhibit little net
evolutionary change for most of their geological
history,
history,
remaining in an extended state called stasis. When
signicant evolutionary change occurs, the theory
proposes that it is generally restricted to rare and
geologically rapid events….”
