Evolution is a biological theory that postulates that all organisms on earth– plants, and animals have a common origin and their differences today are the result of modifications that occurred in successive generations. There is evidence of evolution that can prove this. Evolution claims that there has been a genetic variation that brings about the difference in the physical characteristics of different species.
Evidence of Evolution
We can broadly group the evidence of evolution into 5 broad categories:
Relationship between organisms
Anatomy and morphology
Homologous Organs
Analogous Organs
Vestigial Organs
Atavism
Genetics
Paleontology (study of fossils)
Embryology
Five types of evidence for evolution are discussed in this section: ancient organism remains, fossil layers, similarities among organisms alive today, similarities in DNA, and similarities of embryos.
