canbery explosion evidence:
fossils from british columbia, 1913,the virgis shales, shwoing diveristy,
backboen in explosion
earliest ancestry of all vertebrae
embryos
start, cluster of cells, take shape
hox genes
all anaimals posses same genes, genes from mouse eyes into of fruit fly and develop same eyes
