It doesn't always land butter-side down, but experiments (e.g. on MythBusters) have shown that it does so more often than not.

The reason is that the dimensions/mass/aerodynamics of a typical bread slice and the height of a typical dining table are such that a bread slice will tend to do a half-flip as it falls from the edge of the table to the floor. Since most people put their toast on the table butter-side up, this tends to be the down-facing side once it falls of the table.

MythBusters also dropped buttered toast from a much greater height (20+ feet?) and found that the results were essentially random.

Species change over time in the process of evolution. Since DNA can only be modified before birth, a mutation must have taken place at conception or within an egg such that an animal similar to a chicken, but not a chicken laid the first chicken egg.

However, a mutation in one individual is not normally considered a new species. A speciation event involves the separation of one population from its parent population, so that interbreeding ceases; this is the process whereby domesticated animals are genetically separated from their wild forebears. The whole separated group can then be recognized as a new species.

The modern chicken was believed to have descended from another closely related species of birds, the red junglefowl, but recently discovered genetic evidence suggests that the modern domestic chicken is a hybrid descendant of both the red junglefowl and the grey junglefowl. Assuming the evidence bears out, a hybrid is a compelling scenario that the egg came before the chicken. HOPE THAT ANSWERS YOUR QUESTION!
