This document discusses evidence that supports the theory of evolution through natural selection. It explains that evolution is the process by which organisms acquire adaptations over time through natural selection. All life on Earth shares similarities, like the cell membrane and DNA, supporting the hypothesis that all life evolved from a common ancestor. Comparative anatomy and DNA analysis provide evidence of evolutionary relationships between species. The fossil record shows that fossils in older sedimentary layers are less similar to modern organisms than those in newer layers. The document also discusses Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection and how genetic variation and mutations produce variations within populations that natural selection can act upon.
