Eusthenopteron is a link in a chain of evidence supporting evolution. Transitional forms have been found that are elements of its development from a fish that lived entirely in the ocean to the tetrapods that walked on land. These progressive changes spanned million of years in the late Devonian, from the fish Eusthenopteron, through Tiktaalik, and Acanthostega, to the oldest known tetrapod, Ichthyostega. Eusthenopteron was fish in the ocean, but a portion of that ocean became landlocked and is now part of Pennsylvania. In Darwin's evolution there are mechanisms for development of new genetic information. One of them is described by Ilya Prigogine. Another is Lamarck's evolution (this requires a feedback loop), which is a subset of Darwin's evolution. A third is... well, I'll leave it to you to research on your own.

What was comparative embryology trying to prove?
used to prove the analogous homologous characteristics of evolution
What do scientists use fossil evidence to prove?
Evolution
Did Charles Darwin have evidence to prove evolution?
No, of course not. Evidence does not prove evolution - it validates the theory.Evidence which Darwin had included limited fossils, and observed apparent speciation in birds.
What are some simple ways to prove evolution wrong?
Evolution is not incorrect. Science believes that creatioism is wrong.
Why are the ideas about evolution called theories?
Because although there is evidence to support the claims, it isn't possible to prove evolution indefinately.
Does the Bibles Genesis account of creation contradict the scientific account of evolution?
Yes. However, it is possible to PROVE the validity of evolution on an evidential basis.
Why do we have a good evolutionary record of the horse?
Because the horse did NOT evolve, people just made evolution up. There are many things to prove evolution is fake.
Does evidence prove or disprove evolution?
Law and math prove things. Science supports tentative ( more or less ) explanations of natural phenomenon with evidence. The evidence overwhelmingly supports evolutionary theory. PS Evolution itself is a observed and observable fact.
How do hummingbirds disprove evolution?
They do not. Nothing "disproves" evolution. It is impossible to prove or disprove anything scientifically. That's a basic rule of science: everything is subjected to doubt.
