Want this question answered?
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.
Embryology is used in evolution because its shows a common ansetor. For example, a human and fi sh have similar embryos. Both embryos have pharyngeal slits. In a fish those develop into gills. In humans those turn into our ears.
It does hint at common ancestry so it is "evidence" of evolution.
Ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny, or the development of the individual summarizes the evolution of the species. For example, human embryos go through a stage in which they develop gills as did their aquatic forerunners.

I would say geographic distribution.
The study of fossils, comparative anatomy, embryology, genetics, and biogeography can provide evidence of evolution. These fields help researchers understand how species have changed over time and how they are related to one another through common ancestors.
