In the context of sensation and perception, the detection of pressure by sensory receptors is called thermoreception chemoreception mechanoreception photoreception

explanation:

the fossil record extends back to a dog-like ancestor some 55 million years ago, which gave rise to the first horse-like species 55 to 42 million years ago in the genus eohippus.

in 1859, charles darwin set out his theory of evolution by natural selection as an explanation for adaptation and speciation. he defined natural selection as the "principle by which each slight variation [of a trait], if useful, is preserved".

the fossil record provides evidence of a common ancestor to many species.
