Which among these two organisms
are you more closely related to?
Between a bird and a tree, humans
are more closely related to birds
than trees since we belong to the
same kingdom which is Kingdom
Animalia.

EMBRYONIC
DEVELOPMENT
Many organisms have
similar embryos,

different species
can have
similarities that
are not visible
when the
organisms are
fully formed.

FOSSILS
Fossils are remains of
dead organisms. The types
of fossils are imprint,
compression, true form

HOW DOES EMBRYONIC
DEVELOPMENT PROVIDE
EVIDENCE FOR EVOLUTION?
Similarities in the early stages
embryonic development
provides evidence for
evolution.
