What evolution has produced many of the analogous structures in organisms today?
They don't. Homologous structures provide evidence for evolution not analogous structures.
What are 2 ways that organisms can be compared to provide evidence of evolution from a commo ancestor?
Here's three: homologous genes, ERVs, and examining physical structures of the skeletal system.
What are 3 types of evidence for evolution?
The basic textbook answer is: embryology, homologous and analogous structures, and fossils. However these are old ideas and don't stand on their own two feet, so to speak, when more research is done into them.
Is similarities an early development not evidence for evolution?
It does hint at common ancestry so it is "evidence" of evolution.
What evidence do we have for local adaptation?
how does adaptations give evidence for evolution?
What is a homologous structure and what does it show?
== == Homologous provide evidence for evolution because it shows the similarities and how we evolved from the same ancestors
What evolution has produced many of the analogous structures in organisms today?
They don't. Homologous structures provide evidence for evolution not analogous structures.
What is an explanation of why bird wings and reptile forelegs are evidence of evolution?
Homologous structures indicate a common ancestor
Similarity of structure of the forelimb of a bird and a mammal is an example of what evidence?
Homologous structures - the forelimb structures are anatomically similar and were derived from a common ancestor; however, they have evolved completely different uses. This provides evidence for divergent evolution or adaptive radiation.
What are four areas of study used as evidence of evolution?
Part 1: Evidence from the Fossil RecordPart 2: Evidence from Geographic Distribution of Living SpeciesPart 3: Evidence from Homologous Structures and Vestigial OrgansPart 4: Evidence from Embryologymore: What_are_the_four_pieces_of_evidence_for_evolution
What are 4 pieces of evidence of evolution?
Part 1: Evidence from the Fossil Record Part 2: Evidence from Geographic Distribution of Living Species Part 3: Evidence from Homologous Structures and Vestigial Organs Part 4: Evidence from Embryology
What do homologous structers vestigial structures and fossils provide evidence of what?
which model of evolution shows change over a relatively short period fo time
What are 2 ways that organisms can be compared to provide evidence of evolution from a commo ancestor?
Here's three: homologous genes, ERVs, and examining physical structures of the skeletal system.
Both homologous and analogous forms of these result from evolution?
Structures
Is Homologous structure evidence of evolution?
Yes, as homologous structures, which are now supported by molecular genetic and biochemistry, are evidence for common ancestry. Look at the foreleg of your dog or cat and you will see that the bones of your forearm are quite homologous to the bones in these mammals forelegs. Now, compare your are to a chimpanzees are and, except for bone length, they are almost the same. This shows you, and the genetics and biochemistry back this up, that the chimpanzee is a closer mammal relative to you than the dog or cat.
What type of evidence is the forelimbs of flightless birds?
An homologous structure
Explain why the homologous structures in Part 1 are evidence of evolutionary relationships?
Homologous structures are the remnants of structures long ago that have evolved into other things now. This is why they are evidence of evolutionary relationships.
