What does the fossil record show about how life has change over time?

The fossil record shows that there was many different species that were here on Earth millions of years ago and are now extinct. It also provides evidence about the past climate or whether the fossil was found in a shallow bay, and ocean bottom, or a freshwater swamp. Next time, don't ask wiki for answers to your homework. Do it yourself. ;)


How does the fossil record show that species have changed over time?

The fossil record gives us snapshots of the life at one time. We can compare these to modern life and see what traits where key to survival and survived until today. During the age of the dinosaurs when the planet was warmer being cold blooded was an advantage and during ice ages fur and fat where greater advantages.


How is the theory of evolution supported by fossil evidence?

When we examine the fossil record we see that the Earth has not always had the same living organisms living on it that it has today, but rather, there have been many changes, some gradual and some abrupt, over the past few billion years, and those changes show progressive alterations of exactly the kind that evolution would be expected to produce. The fossil record tells us that yes, life has evolved.


Where is evidence for coordinated stasis found in?

Evidence for coordinated stasis, the idea that species remain stable for long periods of time while undergoing minimal evolutionary change, can be found in the fossil record. Fossil sites that show long-term stability in morphology and genetic traits across multiple species over millions of years, such as the Burgess Shale or the Green River Formation, provide support for the concept of coordinated stasis.
