Discuss how fossils provide evidence of change from the earliest life-forms to those alive today?
Fossils showing animals of the past display some similarity to animals of today as well as some differences. When we start at the bottom of the fossil record (where all the oldest fossils are) and work our way up through all the rock layers of the different ages in geologic time, we start to notice the changes in the fossils and how they lead up to the animals of today
