Question

In Comparative Embryology, many different animals look very similar in the phylotypic stage of development. The time for a embryo to reach this stage in development varies from one species to another. The common structures they may share are pharyngeal pouches, eyes, and a tail. Some embryos of different animals may look more alike than others as you refer to the above image. What can you conclude about the relationship between the similar appearances of the animal embryos during the phylotypic stage?

Answer 1

Explanation:

we can conclude from the above inference that whichever animals or organisms have the same lookalike embryo, those organisms would have the same ancestor i.e. they might have been evolved from the same the ancestor

This is called embryological evidence of evolution.

Answer 2

Explanation:

The phylotypic stage is a stage observed during the development of the embryo in which the different species of the same phylum resembles each other thus is considered to the most conserved stage of embryogenesis.

• At the phylotypic stage of a snake and a lizard, they show some outgrowths which become legs. The similarity for this structure is that they are derived from a common ancestor through divergent evolution or they share a common ancestor.
• Thus, the phylotypic stage represents that an organism share a common ancestor.
