Usually the bone structure of the compared organisms will hint at evolutionary relation. For example, the fin bones of a whale are similar to the bones in a human hand.

What is the related change in two or more species?
That is co-evolution.
How would you use population and evolution in a sentence together?
Through evolution the population of the species was growing.Through evolution the population of the species was growing.Through evolution the population of the species was growing.Through evolution the population of the species was growing.Through evolution the population of the species was growing.Through evolution the population of the species was growing.Through evolution the population of the species was growing.Through evolution the population of the species was growing.Through evolution the population of the species was growing.Through evolution the population of the species was growing.Through evolution the population of the species was growing.
How can embryonic development can be used as evidence for evolution?
Related species have similar embryos.
What kinds of evidence Indicate indicate how closely species are related?
The kinds of evidence that indicates how closely species are related are evidence of DNA and protein structure.
What is mimicry in terms of evolution?
It is when one species copies the behavior or appearance of another, un-related species, to fool predators.
Two species that are closely related become increasingly different through?
Divergent evolution
How are the areas of study-evolution and classification-interlinked?
Evolutionary relationships are traced in the classification of organisms. For classification of organisms, we look for similarities among organisms which allows us to group them. The more characteristics two species will have in common, the more closely they are related. It indicates that more closely two species are related, the more recently they would have had a common ancestor. Thus, classification of species is in fact a reflection of their evolutionary relationship.

How does molecular biology support the theory of evolution?
If you look at the gene sequences of a species, you can see a clear homology among the same species. Distantly related species wont have similarity at DNA level. Hence by knowing the molecular level information one can predict the evolution of a species.
What is a change of a species over time called?
Evolution is a change in species over time.
Why are physical similarities among species not always the result of being related?
because unrelated species can evolve similar traits through convergent evolution.
When related species become dissimilar as they evolve they are undergoing what type of evolution?
Divergent Evolution. Definition of Diverge: to deviate from a set course or standard. soource: google definitions
