Natural Selection: What role does pollution play in ecological changes?
Evolution Evidence: FAMED

Fossils provide solid evidence that organisms from the past are not the same as those found today; they show a progression of evolution.

Anatomical Structures
Different species seem to share homologous (similar) bones. This suggests that each species evolved from a common ancestor, the bones changed because the animal adapted to their new environment.

Molecular Evidence DNA
Embryonic Evidence |
All life carries the same DNA components, and scientists have found the same DNA sections in bacteria as in humans.
