Evidence supporting the theory
11 important questions on Evidence supporting the theory
Where is the evidence supporting the theory of evolution based on?
When is sedimentary rock formed?
Do hard or soft parts of organisms fossilize better?
- Higher grades + faster learning
- Never study anything twice
- 100% sure, 100% understanding
What do the fossilized parts help us with?
How can the layers of rock be dated?
What do fossil findings indicate?
What is similar bone structure?
– Organs having different functions can show similarity in structure. Examples: a bat’s wing, the front flipper of a whale, the front leg of a mole and a human arm.
– These organs most likely developed from the same structure in an ancestral species. The distinctive forms result from adaptation to the environment.
What are rudimentary organs?
– Examples of rudimentary organs: the whale’s pelvis, the legs of a python, the human tailbone and appendix. These organs do develop in related species.
– The presence of rudimentary organs makes it highly probable that different these organisms have a common ancestor.
What does the development at the early stage of embyonic development in vertebrates show?
What are other similareties in different species?
-Genetic similarities are interpetred as evidence for evolution. Human and chimp DNA more than 96% identical
Which tree era's can we mention, old to younger?
2. mesozoic
3. cenozoic
