Best Answer

they look the same when you take x-rays so it most mean the we came from the same organism

improved ans: by monitoring how and what an embryo grows as it matures, you can see a lot of things that you cannot see in a fully grown animal, for instance, human embryos have a tail at certain stages in developement, they also surprisingly have gills at one stage, two of these pairs of gill slits disapear as the embryo grows, and the final pair move upwards to become your eustacian canals and ears. this shows us that humans once had tails and that hundreds of millions of years ago we also had gills which means that at some point in our past we were once sea dwelling.

How does comparing the embryos of different organisms support the theory of evolution?

The stages of development of the embryos of certain organisms are extremely similar, a fact that suggests the organisms had common ancestors.


How do the embryos of different species support the theory of evolution?

The morphology of embryos at various stages, and even the developmental patterns of embryos, show the same pattern of nested hierarchies that we find in morphology, behaviour and genomes, independently confirming common descent, but also teaching us how morphologies could diverge through relatively minor genetic shuffling.


Does the existence of intermediate forms support or not support the theory of evolution?

Intermediate forms are predicted by evolutionary science in several ways. Their presence supports the theory of evolution.


What was Einstein's theory on evolution?

He's not known for a theory of evolution. Darwin is.


What biological sciences support Darwin's theory of evolution?

The better question would be; what biological sciences DO NOT support Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection. Evolution is the backbone of biology and the theory that explains much about evolution is the bedrock on which all biology is built, regardless of the apparent absence in some disciplines of biology. It is no longer just Darwin's theory as many disciplines not formed then, and some extant then, have added to and refined the theory. Genetics Molecular cell biology. Evolutionary developmental biology. Biochemistry. Geology. Paleontology. Population generics. Botany. Evolutionary biology. And the list can go on. Google, disciplines in biology, wiki.

How does observed evolutionary change support the scientific theory of evolution?

The theory predicts that evolution will happen and in certain ways. The observed evolution makes this prediction correct. It also defines evolution as happening, and as such is perfect evidence in support of it.

In every way.


How does Josiah Strong show that he supports the theory of evolution?

There is strong support for the theory of evolution due to fossils that have been found by archeologists. The fossil records show evidence of evolution over billions of years.

How do fossil and biochemicals support the theory of evolution?

Because due to Darwins theory of evolution, fossils lead to adaptations over time therefor giving us reason to find evolution within human beings and animals.


How are vertebrate embryos evidence of evolution?

All vertebrate embryos look roughly the same, showing that they come from a common ancestor.
