Today I will be teaching you about the evidence of evolution, the two pieces of evidence I will be using is Biogeography and Fossils
Fossil Record (transitional form)
- Study of geographical distribution of organisms
- It helps explain evolution in terms of the fact that similar environments leads to similar evolution in organisms
The first evidence of evolution I will be discussing in Biogeography
Biogeography
- Darwin realised that organisms living in the Galapagos Islands and the Cape Verde Islands were more similar than their counterparts on the mainland
Here is an example of Biogeography proving evolution is Darwins observations
Biogeography

Biogeography
To conclude, the two evidences of evolution I covered were Biogeography and Fossil Record
Fossil Record (transitional form)
- In 1988, scientists found a 370 mya fossilised fish with a hand-like fin, suggesting a transition from a sea based organism to a land organism
Here is an example of how fossils prove evolution
Fossils
- Fossils prove evolution because it shows scientists that organisms are now different from life found today, it also helps scientists reconstruct the evolutionary histories of present-day species.
- A fossil is the preserved remains of a dead organism from millions of years ago
The second evidence of evolution I will be discussing is Fossils
Fossils
