What is responsible for the differences between gorilla and human?
Evolution.
The accumulation of differences between populations that once formed a single population is called?
divergent evolution
What study can provide evidence of evolution?
Paleontology, genetics, molecular biology, taxonomy, evolutionary development and comparative anatomy, just to name a few.
How is science used in paleontology?
Paleontologists come up with hypotheses about the fossil life found in rock from observations of bone, claws, teeth, size, footprints, etc. These hypotheses can be tested through observation and camparison, microscopic analysis, chemical analysis, kind of formation they're found in and so on. When a consensus of opinion is achieved on a hypothesis, it is considered a theory, until a better provable hypothesis comes along. It's the scientific method. Paleontologists are considered scientists in research of the fossil life record.

What modern evidence is used to support evolution?
The branches of genetics, paleontology, observed natural selection and speciation all support evolution. Examples: (Genetics) Human chromosome 2 resulted from a fusion of two ancestral chromosomes. (Paleontology) Evolution of the horse. (Natural selection) Observed in Peppered moths. (Speciation) The Hawthorn Fly

How do differences come about?
Evolution.
Why paleontology is important?
Paleontology is important because it allows scientists to create a much more complete map of evolution, and also even helps to demonstrate evolution. Fossils are direct documentation of the history of life. Paleontology allows us to understand more about how we evolved, how other organisms evolved, how life on our planet has changed through time, and how it will continue change in the future.
What is the studies of dinosaurs?
Paleontology is the study of prehistoric life, including organisms' evolution and interactions with each other and their environments.
The accumulation of differences between populations that once formed a single population is called?
divergent evolution
What is the study of prehisotric creatures?
Paleontology is the study of prehistoric life, including evolution and how organism interact with each other and their environments.
