evolution

Question 1

remains and traces of past life or any other direct evidence of past life.

Answer 1

fossils

Question 8

what are the 4 concepts of evolution

Answer 8

1. changes in time changes the characteristics of the population
2. present day species come from preexisting ones
3. all species came from a common ancestor
4. natural selection brings evolutions.

Question 9

development of similar traits from the same ancestors

Answer 9

homogenous traits

Question 10
