Definition1/10
It tells you when the animal that made a fossil was alive.
Radio carbon dating proves scientifically the age of a given
material. If a fossil is found embedded in material that is x
number of years old and a similar fossil is found x number of years
older or younger then we can surmise the evolution of that species.
There are thousands of examples of theoretical evolution using this
method.

When will natural selection occur
🔄 Click to see definition
Definition1/10
Natural selection occurs when four conditions are met:
1. There is variation among individuals.
2. That variation is at least partially heritable.
3. That variation is linked to differential reproductive
success.
4. More individuals are born than can survive and reproduce.
