A

Fossils


B

Homologous organs


C

Molecular biology


D

Analogous organs


Evidence of evolution includes fossils, homologous organs and analogous organs. Homologous and analogous organs show how organs can modify themselves in the course of time to perform. These modifications over the time accumulate as variations that eventually lead to evolution. Fossils provide material evidence for evolution. The examination of dead remains of ancient organisms helps us to understand the course that evolution took. In molecular biology, DNA and the genetic code reflects the shared ancestry of all forms of life which is an evidence of evolution.
