How do fossils form?
4
Gradualism vs Punctuated Equilibria
Gradualism: The theory that evolution occurs slowly by steadily Punctuated Equilibria:Evolution occurs during short periods of rapid change separated by long periods of little or no change
5
What are homologous structures?
Similar structures that related species have inherited from a common ancestor
6
Similarities in Early Development
7
Human Embryos have tails and gill slits
8
Similarities in DNA – Is an Elephant and this Shrew closely related?
Scientists can determine how closely related the species are by comparing the DNA of different species DNA comparison has revealed that the tiny elephant shrew is closely related to the elephant
