Which of the following are pieces of evidence to support evolution?
|
|
Direct Observation
|
|
|
Studying homologous structures (the forelimb of vertebrates is similar)
|
|
|
Fossil Evidence
|
|
|
DNA Evidence
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Evidence for evolution: anatomy, molecular biology, biogeography, fossils, & direct observation.
Detailed explanation-2: -Molecular similarities provide evidence for the shared ancestry of life. DNA sequence comparisons can show how different species are related. Biogeography, the study of the geographical distribution of organisms, provides information about how and when species may have evolved.
Detailed explanation-3: -Darwin used multiple lines of evidence to support his theory of evolution by natural selection–fossil evidence, biogeographical evidence, and anatomical evidence.
Detailed explanation-4: -Final Answer: Fossils provide the most evident proof of evolution.
