Red Queen Hypothesis:

Named after the Red Queen's race in "Through the Looking-Glass", this hypothesis explains why organisms must constantly evolve just to maintain their fitness relative to competing species.

Watch:
  • Predators evolve faster speed to catch prey
  • Prey evolve faster speed to escape
  • Neither gains permanent advantage
  • Both keep evolving - "running to stay in place"
The arms race continues indefinitely!
