Vestigial structures do not harm the organism. Nature selects against only harmful traits.

How is radioactive dating important for providing evidence for evolution

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.

What is an effect of adaptive radiation

Speciation Adaptive radiation refers to changes in a species in response to varying environmental conditions.

many new species form
