Question

distinguish between vestigial organs and paleontological or​

Answer 1

Answer:

These 'useless' body-parts, otherwise known as vestigial organs, are remnants of lost functions that our ancestors possessed. They once represented a function that evolved out of a necessity for survival, but over time that function became non-existent.

Paleontology is the study of the history of life on Earth as based on fossils. Fossils are the remains of plants, animals, fungi, bacteria, and single-celled living things that have been replaced by rock material or impressions of organisms preserved in rock.
