 EVIDENCES OF EVOLUTION

Evolution is the process by which

species change over time through the
process of natural selection.
Over the years, scientists have
gathered a wealth of evidence to
support the theory of evolution.
 Evolutionary Relationships

These evidences come from various

fields of study, including paleontology,
comparative anatomy, embryology,
molecular biology, and biogeography.
Let's explore some of the key
evidences of evolution:
A. FOSSIL RECORDS

The fossil record

provides a rich
source of evidence
for evolution.
Fossils are the
preserved remains
or traces of ancient
organisms.
 A. FOSSIL RECORDS

By studying fossils, scientists can trace

the changes in species over time.
Fossil evidence shows the existence of
transitional forms, which are intermediate
stages between different species.
For example, the fossil record provides
evidence for the evolution of whales from
land-dwelling mammals.
B. COMPARATIVE ANATOMY

Comparative
anatomy involves
studying the
similarities and
differences in the
structure of
different organisms.
 B. COMPARATIVE ANATOMY

Homologous structures are anatomical

features that have a similar structure but
may have different functions.
These structures suggest a common
ancestry.
For instance, the forelimbs of humans,
bats, whales, and cats have similar bone
structure, indicating a common ancestor.
C. EMBRYOLOGY
Embryology is the
study of the
development of
embryos.
Comparative
embryology reveals
similarities in the early
stages of development
among different
species.
 C. EMBRYOLOGY

For example, the embryos of fish,

reptiles, birds, and mammals have
similar structures, suggesting a shared
evolutionary history.
D. MOLECULAR BIOLOGY

Molecular
biology provides
evidence for
evolution at the
molecular level.
 D. MOLECULAR BIOLOGY

By analyzing DNA sequences,

scientists can determine the degree of
relatedness between species.
The more similar the DNA sequences,
the more closely related the species are
believed to be.
E. BIOGEOGRAPHY

Biogeography is
the study of the
distribution of species
across different
geographic regions.
The distribution of
species can provide
clues about their
evolutionary history.
 E. BIOGEOGRAPHY

For example, the presence of similar

species on different continents suggests
that they share a common ancestor but
have diverged due to geographic
isolation.
F. EXPERIMENTAL EVIDENCES

In addition to the
above evidences,
experimental studies
have also provided
evidence for
evolution.
 F. EXPERIMENTAL EVIDENCES

For example, the famous

experiments by biologist Richard Lenski
with E. coli bacteria demonstrated the
evolution of new traits over time in
response to environmental changes.
 EVIDENCES OF EVOLUTION

These are just a few examples of the

many evidences that support the
theory of evolution.
The cumulative evidence from
various fields of study provides a
compelling case for the reality of
evolution.
 EVIDENCES OF EVOLUTION

It is important to note that the theory

of evolution is widely accepted by the
scientific community and is considered one
of the fundamental principles of biology.
Remember, understanding the
evidences of evolution is crucial for
comprehending the diversity of life on
Earth and how species have changed and
adapted over millions of years.
