does not significantly regulate this predetermined path because evolution does not result from external factors, such as taught by Lamarckianism or natural selection theories. The orthogenesis concept also taught that evolution would continue until a maximized developed structure evolved.<ref>http://creation.com/images/pdfs/tj/j17_2/j17_2_19-25.pdf</ref>}}
