In this picture to the right you can see the stages of
evolution within the womb. It shows how certain
animals look similar in their early stages of
development. For the fish and salamander there first
stages look almost identical, same with the second
stages but, you do begin to see the difference more
easily. Then in the third stages the difference between
the two begin to shows greatly. As for the tortoise,
Chick, and human it shows how the first and second
stages are similar in how they look but do have their
difference which separates them from each other.
Molecular Biologists
Molecular Biologists study the DNA and
other specifying things that helped us
form our world today. There are many
things that molecular biologists do for us
in finding our family tree…
The animals on the timeline show how the bones of an aquatic animal evolve to make a
land animal such as what is on the timeline. This specific timeline shows the forearm
evolvolving from a dolphin’s front fin into an animal with arms.
This fossil timeline shows how a dog’s leg evolved to a
horse’s leg. As you see here, the dog leg discontinued the
extra bones and also got longer. The creature was evolved
from an animal called an Eohippus.
This picture shows how a fossil goes
from death, through the earth, and then
back to the surface. When an animal
dies, it goes through a process. The
process involves going through the
earth due to the wet soil and then goes
back up from pressure.
These fossils are related but they one has evolved from the other. The bigger
fossil is a later product of the smaller fossil after a millions of years. It changed to
be a bigger, more bowl shaped shell.
This picture shows that our homologous structure is
evolved off of 1 animal, but evolved into multiple
different animals such as the dog, cat or humans.
