1. Artificial selection through experiments by biologists provides evidence of natural selection. The only difference is that humans rather than nature determine which individuals pass on their genes. 2. Direct observation of evolution over time has found directional selection leading to traits like darker pigmentation, larger brain size, faster enzymes, and more extensive root systems. 3. Patterns of adaptation like convergent and divergent evolution provide further evidence. Convergent evolution occurs when similar environments produce similar adaptations in different organisms, while divergent evolution produces different adaptations in closely related organisms facing different environments.
