Last updated: 1/10/2024
Terence between phyletic gradualism and punctuated equilibria with regard to describing rates of evolutionary change There is no difference between phyletic gradualism and punctuated equilibria According to Darwin neither theory was controversial and was widely accepted by many researchers Phyletic gradualism embraces new traits becoming established in a population by increasing their frequency from small to majority of the population whereas pu tuated equilibria states that new t its are produced in a series of small incremental steps over thousands of generations Phyletic gradualism embraces small changes accumulating regularly over long periods of time while punctuated equilibria embraces more rapid changes in a brief period of time
