Evidence for Evolution

• How big are whales?
• What do whales eat?
• How are whales different from fish?
• Where do whales live in the world?
• What are whales known for?

Evidence by Example

ancient organism remains, fossil layers, similarities among organisms alive today, similarities in DNA, and similarities of embryos

Examples of evolution

Human example

Evidence in human skull

Evidence from DNA

DNA

Lines of Evidence

Similarities in DNA

Evidence from Embryology

Development of anatomy

Human embryo vs. chick embryo

This compares the development of chickens vs humans - showing that all vertebrates have similar developmental stages early on but at a certain point they diverge.
