It's ok, I'll save you the trouble of long boring speeches that cover simple theory.

..and the fish lost his fins because he didn't need them out of water... the monkey lost his tail because he didn't need it once he was walking upright and not swinging from trees, he put on his monkey suit instead and gave his stuffed shirt to you.

right, I made it through 6th grade. I can see it made an unforgettable impression on you. It's all very boring by now though. Theory is fun stuff, but it's only applicable in real life when it's no longer theory. You need to provide examples if you intend to make anyone jump out of their chair. And nooo, not examples of adaptation like a cat's fur gets thicker in the winter or skin gets darker in very sunny climates. And btw, if you want to say species actually deviate from a 'norm' you have to first prove the 'norm' and then prove the new trait isnot inherent to begin with. Like fur gets thicker or skin gets darker, those are inherent traits, they are not changes to genetics. Adaptation and variation are mostly just examples of already inherent abilitiies.

Adaption and variation are only temporary within species. The original DNA of the species is never actually lost and all species revert to the original traits when the new adaptive traits are no longer neccessary. That is not theory btw. Try to take a leap over it. You can make all the hybrid tomato plants you want but next season, their seed will always germinate genetically identical to either one parent or the other. Hybrids only exist within one generation and then return to the parent species. That is not theory either. Try to take a leap over it.
