Evolutionary transitions refer to major shifts in the organization, behavior, or complexity of organisms over time. These transitions often result in the emergence of new traits, forms, or structures that allow organisms to adapt to changing environments and ecological pressures. Examples of evolutionary transitions include shifts from single-celled to multicellular organisms, the development of complex organs like eyes or wings, and the transition from aquatic to terrestrial lifestyles. Studying evolutionary transitions can provide valuable insights into the mechanisms driving the diversification and adaptation of life on Earth.
