Anatomical evidence is important as a physical proof for evolution. The anatomical evidence are majorly of two kinds:
Analogous structures: These are structures that have similar functions and appearance but have different biological make-up. This is a proof for evolution that unrelated species, when forced to live in similar conditions, adapted to this- but differently. examples- Body shape, size and colour in sharks and dolphins
Homologous structures: these are structures with similar biological make-up but different functions. This supports evolution that related species when exposed to different environments, adapted accordingly. examples: Wings of birds and bats
