Human Evolution Conclusion

There is no scientifically accepted research that shows that humans have stopped evolving. Evolution is certainly still occurring and will continue to occur in humans. Humans exhibit differences in reproductive success, which directly leads to evolution. Humans still face challenges to survival as well, and exhibit variation in heritable traits, all characteristics of evolution. Some of the confusion on this topic likely arises because modern humans have not existed for an extensive period of time, evolutionarily speaking. Many of humanities most esteemed innovations have happened in the past decade or century, merely a few generations at most. However, no innovation will change the fact that humans exhibit varying reproductive success and challenges to survival, the components of evolution.
