You and your friend inspect a group of fossils from different organisms with various features. Your friend is convinced that all of the fossils are unrelated, but you find evidence that these organisms share an ancestor. What is an example of evidence that you could use to best support this argument? (1 point)

Question

O patterns in limb structures
• heights
• tooth features
O number of bones

Answer 1

The best example of evidence that could be used to support the argument that these organisms share an ancestor would be the presence of O patterns in limb structures. This would suggest that despite the variations in appearance, the underlying structure and arrangement of bones in the limbs of these organisms are similar, indicating a shared evolutionary history and a common ancestor.
