Question

How does the study of fossils support evolution? Explain.

Answer 1

Explanation:

The fossil record

This supports Darwin's theory of evolution, which states that simple life forms gradually evolved into more complex ones. Evidence for early forms of life comes from fossils. By studying fossils, scientists can learn how much (or how little) organisms have changed as life developed on Earth.

Answer 2

The study of fossils support evolution in following ways :

• With the help of fossils we can identify the species of organism and the ancestor of organism with the help of anatomical feature.
• Fossils also tells us about the habitat of that species which we can also study the evolution by relating the organism with its other organism.
• Evolution of organism have certain changes from the ancestor but most of the anatomical feature of that species remains same.
• E.g -Human .
