There isn't, of course, a gap in time. There are, however, very few fossils intermediate between simple stromatolites (the first more or less multicellular organisms) and the first complex organisms found just before the Cambrian Explosion. This gap most likely exists because while predation already existed (organisms consuming other organisms), no organisms had yet developed an internal or external skeleton that could have been preserved at death. The very few organisms from that era that were preserved despite of this, were preserved in the form of molds and casts.
The first trilobites appear about the same time in Siberian, Moroccan and North American strata of about 524 million years of age, at the start of series 2 of the Cambrian Period. The first trilobites include fallotaspidoids Profallotaspis, Eofallotaspis, and Fritzaspis, but also include an ellipsocephaloid, Hupetina.

Evolution is descent with modification. Or, change over time. And formally as the change in allele frequencies over time in a population of organisms. This is an observed and a observable fact. The theory is; the theory of evolution by natural selection, which explains the fact of evolution. Natural selection is the main mechanism ( there are others ) that drives the adaptive change in organism that can lead to speciation, or just simple evolution.
The study of fossils represent the evolution of species by the time period between when they became fossils and what the ancestory line is
I believe that the word you are looking for is "adaptation". ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Correct
Trilobites have been extinct for a long time; there are none left for us to take care of.
Trilobites were rapidly evolving and widespread marine organisms that spanned a number of geologic time periods. Certain types of trilobites only appeared in specific segments of geologic time; therefore, when one of these trilobites is found, you can be certain that the rock layer it is found in is of a certain geologic age.

The theory of evolution explains the process of biological change and adaptation over generations in living organisms. Language evolution, on the other hand, refers to the development and changes in human languages over time. While both concepts involve change and adaptation over time, they occur in different domains - biological for evolution and linguistic for language evolution.

Theory of evolution refers to animals and plants evolution along the time. Language evolution is another issue, not entirely related to the theory of evolution. It follows the theory of evolution on some way but it is related to culture evolution, not to the physical attributes evolution.

they most of the time eat brine shrimp, but they do also eat plankton sometimes.
