This topic is interesting and innovative to the extent that its implementation in the initial years of schooling corresponding to primary school is limited and is not deepened in secondary school (Barros, Fuentes, and Rivadulla, 2021), its treatment being important as it provides . to the consolidation of the future understanding of evolutionary theory, the living and its relationship with the environment, to the extent that the student is made aware not only of the survival characteristics of individuals but also of the incidence of environmental changes and its possible effects, promoting critical positions towards the world around them (Bruckermann, Fiedler and Harms, 2021). From the analysis of various instruments, it is possible to show that there is progress in the description of morphological, physiological and ethological characteristics, being related to elements of ecosystems and aspects such as survival and reproduction, despite presenting obstacles to learning.
