28. b. Aristotle 400BC a. Anaximander c. Carolus vonLinnaeus 1700’s d. Count Buffon 1700’s e. Baron Cuvier 1800’s organisms strive to become more complex creatures organized from simple to complex or “Scala naturae” in a fixed state designed a system of classification (binomial nomenclature) organisms were not fixed = change over time Force? Catastrophism (Name one!) to explain the variation in the extinct vs. extant species
