Detailed explanation-1: -Fossils provide important evidence for evolution and the adaptation of plants and animals to their environments. Fossil evidence provides a record of how creatures evolved and how this process can be represented by a ‘tree of life’, showing that all species are related to each other.
Detailed explanation-2: -Fossils provide the knowledge of animals and plants that lived hundreds of years ago which are now extinct. It helps us to compare the organisms that lived in earlier times and their present descendants. They are the connecting link between two groups and help in the study of evolution.
Detailed explanation-3: -Scientists determine evolutionary relationships through DNA, similarities in early development, and similar bone structure.
