The document provides evidence for evolution from four areas: fossil records, comparative anatomy, embryonic development, and amino acid sequences. It describes how fossils found in sedimentary rock layers provide evidence of how species have changed over generations. Comparative anatomy shows homologous and analogous structures between species, indicating shared ancestry or convergent evolution. Embryonic development reveals similarity between species in early embryonic stages even if adults differ. Finally, greater similarity in amino acid sequences between organisms suggests a closer evolutionary relationship and common ancestor.

The presentation introduces the topic of evolution, along with a review format.
Discusses the concept of evolution as biological changes across generations via natural selection, showcasing evidence of evolution.
Explores fossil records as critical evidence for evolution, including definitions, types of fossils, and dating methods.
Presents a timeline of geological eras showing fossil appearances and their age in million years.
Examines homologous structures among species indicating shared ancestry and divergent evolution.
Describes analogous structures that evolve similarly in different species due to adaptive functions, illustrating convergent evolution.
Discusses stages of embryonic development evidencing similarities among various species, indicating evolutionary relationships.
Analyzes amino acid sequences to infer genetic relationships among organisms and their evolutionary links.
Final slide thanking the audience for their attention.

- 15. 1.Evidence from FossilsRecords The age of fossils is determined through fossil dating. It can be specified as either relative or absolute dating. RELATIVE DATING Method used to determine the age of the rocks by comparing them with the rocks in the other layer. The younger sedimentary rock layer is assumed to be found on top and the older rock is found at the bottom layer. Fossil found at the bottom layer is assumed to be older than those on the upper layer.
- 16. 1. Evidence fromFossils Records The age of fossils is determined through fossil dating. It can be specified as either relative or absolute dating. ABSOLUTE DATING is through the use of radioactive isotopes such as carbon 14. Radiometric dating is a method used to determine the age of rocks using the decay radioactive isotopes present in rocks. All organisms has carbon 14 in it. Plants and animals that are still alive constantly replace the supply of carbon in their body and the amount of carbon 14 in their body stays the same

- 19. 2.Comparative Anatomy HOMOLOGOUS STRUCTURE Structurefrom different species which have similar internal framework, position, and embryonic development are considered to be homologous. Homologous structures may perform different functions in the species living in the different environment , or it may have the same origin but different functions.
- 20. 2.Comparative Anatomy HOMOLOGOUS STRUCTURE . Hereare some examples of homologous structure: The forelimbs of human, cat, whale and bat are structurally the same, but functionally different.
- 21. 2.Comparative Anatomy HOMOLOGOUS STRUCTURE . Thepresence of homologous structure is a strong indicator that the organisms evolved from central ancestors. This type of evolution is called divergent evolution. Pliohippus Horse Zebra
- 22. 2.Comparative Anatomy ANALOGOUS STRUCTURE Structuresof unrelated species may evolved to alike, because the structure is adapted to similar function. These are called analogous structures. Analogous structures have similar functions but different origin.
- 23. 2.Comparative Anatomy ANALOGOUS STRUCTURE . Hereare some examples of analogous structure: Wings of birds ,bat and insect have similar functions but different origin.

- 26. 3. Embryonic Development Anembryo is an early stage of development in organisms. Embryonic development include stages such as blastula, gastrula, and organogenesis. The embryo of fishes, salamanders, lizards, birds, cats, and humans have similar during the first stage of their embryonic development.
- 27. 3. Embryonic Development Theyhave several homologous structures that are not present when the organisms are adult. Studies shows that species that are closely related exhibit similar embryonic development. Even when in adult stage, the organisms are quite different.
- 28. 4. Amino AcidSequence The greater the similarity in amino acid sequence, the closer the relationship of the organisms. The organisms which are similar in structure and also possess similarity at the biochemical level could probably have a common ancestor.
