Question

Give three evidences of evolution with one example of each.

Answer 1

1. Palaeontological evidence: Fossils show change through time; example: Archaeopteryx has features of both reptiles and birds. 
2. Comparative anatomy: Homologous structures indicate common ancestry; example: vertebrate forelimbs.
3. Molecular evidence: Similarities in DNA and the genetic code support common ancestry; example: strong molecular similarities between humans and other great apes.
