Identify the evidence shown by the picture and explain how it supports evolution.
Not less than 10 sentences please.
Describe the modern theory of evolution and discuss how it is supported by evidence from two of the following three areas;population genetics, molecular biology and comparative anatomy and embryology. Evolution is one of the major unifying concepts of modern biology. Explain the mechanism that leads to evolutionary change. Describe how scientists use each of the following as evidence for evolution ;bacterial resistance to antibiotics, comparative biochemistry and fossil records.
One misconception of Evolution with the general public is that it is often stated as "just a theory." What is wrong with the
context of this statement and what is a scientific theory? Also, name another example of a scientific theory.

"One argument that is often made to invalidate evolution by natural selection is that some features of an organism are so complicated and need to work together in order to precisely function that it is impossible for such structures to arise from simpler ones by the random processes of mutation and selection: complicated design requires a designer. Using evidence from real organisms, explain how a complicated structure can arise from a simpler ancestral feature. You can use either an anatomical feature or molecular one."arrow_forwardSimilarities between genomes of different organisms are evidence of evolutionary relationships, and can be used as a predictive tool in research.
