What was one of the two primary distinctions between a "transformational" process of evolution, as described Jean-Baptiste Lamarck, and the "variational" process of evolution, as described by Charles Darwin?
A) Darwin thought change was a result of differences acquired by members of a group and that the changes were acquired during the lifetime of the individuals and passed down to their offspring. Lamarck thought these differences already existed and were not acquired during the lifetime of the members of the group.
B) Lamarck thought change was a result of a supernatural process acting on differences already existing in a group and those processes sorted on that existing variation.
C) Lamarck thought change was a result of differences acquired by members of a group and that the changes were acquired during the lifetime of the individual and passed down to their offspring. Darwin thought those differences already existed and were not acquired during the lifetime of the members of the group.
D) Darwin thought change was a result of a supernatural process acting on differences already existing in a group and those processes sorted on that variation.
