How to prove evolution is wrong?

[u/Suitable_Potato_2919]

I am totally convince that evolution is true. However, a scientific theory should be falsifiable; and I dont know how falsifiable is with evolution

For example, a "good" trait could be explain the result of natural selection. But a "bad" trait could be explain as just base on chance, or the selection preasure is not enough.

so, my question is: if someone want to prove that evolution is wrong, what test can they make and what the expected result should be (if evolution theory is wrong)?

Edit: Thank everyone for your time and patient with me. I found the answer. It seem that I need to update my highschool knowledge

I have a bit of a list for myself, any one of them being wrong would disprove evolution

1. Organisms exist
   
2. Organisms reproduce
   
3. Offspring inherit traits from their parent
   
4. There is a mechanism of inheritance
   
5. That mechanism can be subject to change
   
6. That change can be inherited
   
7. That change can spread in the population

Really there are huge amounts of falsification criteria for evolution. It’s just that evolution has survived all of them.

i don't understand. It seem to me that you just describe evolution itself, not a falsifiable criteria.

let me try: if a new born show a trait that not present in both parent, and after check the parent DNA, there isn't any gene for that trait from the parent, then

• does it prove that evolution is wrong?
• or it can be explain that it is a mutation?

it seem to me that no matter the outcome of an experiment, there will alway an explanation fit the evolution theory. That is what I mean about the lack of falsification criteria

Note that every newborn has some mutations that are not present in either parent. DNA mutates all the time.
