The first way is if they can produce viable offspring (which must also be able to reproduce).
If one of the organisms is extinct, they compare bone structures, whether it has similar vestigial parts as the other organism.
I believe another way is by the comparison of some enzymes.
What else can I help you with?
How do scientists know that organisms that lived millions of years ago are related to organisms of today?
They can track how long that fossil has been around by using carbon dtaing. They can also use an index fossil that is in the same rock layer. When they get the date of the fossil they can figure out what it might look like and how it ate or how it moved
Why is it important to know the difference between science and pseudoscience?
because science is what makes organisms what they are today, and idrk what the other word is so figure it out yourself
How else might scientists share information today?
when scientist
How many years ago did the first humans appear?
not yet, modern means today (thats paraphrased by me) and descendant means a fallowing generation member related by blood (also paraphrased), but put it together and you can figure it out. when will children of todays humans appear? maybe as soon as tomorrow! maybe in a week or so.
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 can scientist learn about an arganisms ancestors?
Scientists can learn more about ancestors of different species and organisms by looking at fossil records and observing related species that are alive today.
Which scientists is credited with developing the system of grouping organisms that is still used today?
Linnaeus
In addition to fossils how can scientists learn about an organisms ancestor?
Aside from fossils we can learn about organisms and how they have changed over the years by looking at the plants and animals we have today.
Why is it so important for scientists to classify organisms both living and extinct?
It is important for scientists to classify both living and extinct organisms so that historians can know how the earth was millions of years ago and today. It is more important today so that scientists can help people preserve the earth.
How do we know that organisms that lived millions of years ago are related to the organisms of today?
Scientists use various methods to study the similarities and differences in the physical characteristics, genetic makeup, and evolutionary history of organisms that lived millions of years ago and those living today. By comparing fossils, DNA sequences, and other evidence, researchers can trace the evolutionary relationships between different species and determine how they are related to each other over time. This helps us understand the connections between ancient and modern organisms and how they have evolved and changed over millions of years.
The theory that different organisms have ancestors that are related is what theory?
The theory that different organisms have ancestors that are related is called the theory of evolution. This theory explains how organisms have changed over time through the process of natural selection, leading to the diversity of life we see today.
How are Aristotle's teachings related to the scientists method used by today?
He urged people to use their sences to make observations, just as scientist today make observations
Why is it important to know the difference between science and pseudoscience?
because science is what makes organisms what they are today, and idrk what the other word is so figure it out yourself
What method did Carolus Linnaeus use to group organisms?
Carolus Linnaeus used Binomial Nomenclature to classify organisms, It is still used today. He named around 400 species which was a lot for him, other scientists may classify about 2,000.
Do you think that scientists still believe the cell theory today?
Yes, scientists still believe in the cell theory today because it is a well-established and widely accepted principle in biology. The cell theory states that all living organisms are composed of cells, and all cells come from pre-existing cells through cell division.
Has the theory about the bible being the most scientific book changed?
Please see the related link below.Many scientists today do not believe in the Bible, and would argue that it is not scientific. However, there are still some scientists who believe the Bible is true. The chart in the related link shows scientific facts from the Bible.
