Question number EIGHT. Which of the following supports the theory of evolution by natural selection? Vestigial structures Fossil record Comparing DNA, skeletons, and embryos. All the above.
You are correct. Vestigial organs, the fossil record, comparing skeletons, DNA, and embryos all supports the theory of evolution by natural selection. Click here for next question.
