- QUESTION 2 The theory of evolution states that: O Over time, all living things gradually evolve to become better adapted to their environments until there is a perfect fit between the organism and its environment O Over time, simple organisms become more complex and advanced through evolution O All life on Earth is descended from a single common ancestor, and differences between organisms can all be attributed to evolutionary change O All evolution is caused by Natural Selection, in which individuals with genes that are better adapted to their environments are more likely to pass on those genes to their descendants, altering the allele frequency in the population over timearrow_forwardQUESTION 33 What is the taxonomic order to which humans belong?
