Question

What is organic evolution? How do embryonic studies provide evidence for evolution?

Answer 1

Organic evolution:

Organic evolution states that all the species are born from a pre-existing species after changes in their genetic information due to many factors like mutations, environmental factors, reproductive isolation, etc.

Evidence for evolution:

1. The embryonic studies of different vertebrates provide very strong evidence supporting organic evolution.
2. The early embryos of many vertebrates show striking similarities during their developmental process, which may or may not persist in the adult organism.
3. This indicates the common origin and ancestry of these vertebrates.
