Abstract
This work is a major review of the existing on evolution and genetics. It was started by discussing the Charles Darwin theory of evolution i.e. by exploring patterns of bones in vertebrates showing typical pentadactyl limbs, vestigial structures, sorology, parasitology etc. with special attention in man and his races. Following was the existence theory of genetics in the development of man. The introduction of chromosomes was used to strengthen this resulting in the development of character. The occasional occurrences of mutation in the chromosomes due to some factors were also discussed together with the idea of sex linkage. Later, at the end, the mathematics of genetic algorithm was applied in the work to see how selection chromosomes could influence artificial intelligence and neural network training mostly seen in the area of optimization mathematics.
Keywords: Genital epithelium, Chromosomes, testis, environment, seminal vesicle, evolution science, vas deferens,, genetic behavior, Haemonchus contortus, mathematical genetic algorithm, histomophology., mutation, variation.
