dating organisms by the relative order of their fossils
|
Detailed explanation-1: -Answer. Comparing sleep patterns of organisms is used for studying organisms could least likely be accomplished by studying the fossil record.
Detailed explanation-2: -Fossils provide solid evidence that organisms from the past are not the same as those found today; fossils show a progression of evolution. Fossils, along with the comparative anatomy of present-day organisms, constitute the morphological, or anatomical, record.
Detailed explanation-3: -Fossils, or preserved parts of organisms from the distant past, have shown that species change over time. Radiometric dating can be used to determine the age of fossils by measuring the how much of the radioactive materials in each rock layer have broken down.
Detailed explanation-4: -They say the fossil record fails to show what are called “transitional forms, ” generally the in-between stages as one type of creature evolved into another.
Detailed explanation-5: -Explanation: By looking at fossils, one is able analyze the physical structures of past organisms, many which have since gone extinct. You are able to see how old these organisms were/what eras they lived in by using relative dating.
