This document discusses evidence that supports the theory of evolution through natural selection, including fossils, anatomical similarities across species, embryological development, and biomolecular evidence from genetics. The key pieces of evidence are fossils that show gradual changes over generations, comparative anatomy showing shared structures across related species, embryological development recapitulating evolutionary history, and genetic information providing information about common descent.
