Document Summary
Evidence best explained by theory of evolution: fossil record, comparative anatomy, developmental biology, biochemical and genetic analyses, artificial selection. Comparative anatomy: analogous structures convergent evolution similar to environmental forces select similar structures in unrelated organisms, vestigial structure: rudimentary form of an organ more fully formed in, wings of a bird and dragon fly wings ancestor evolutionary baggage . Developmental biology: divergent evolution : animals are defined as multicellular eukaryotes and we feed by ingestion, fungi absorbs enzymes from their food and they digest it outside of their body, multicellular eukaryotes. Biochemical and genetic analyses: common use and similarities of dna, rna, amino acids, ribosomes, genetic code, atp, electron carriers, electron transport systems etc, correlation of dna, proteins, etc. with relatedness of species.
