  6. DARWIN THOUGHT THAT…. • IN EACH GENERATION OF A SPECIES THERE’S ALWAYS VARIATION. • THE MOST VALUABLE QUALITIES ARE THE ONES THAT HELP ANIMALS SURVIVE. • THESE ANIMALS ARE MORE LIKELY TO SURVIVE AND BREED. • THEIR QUALITIES WILL BE PASSED ON TO THEIR OFFSPRING. • THE ANIMALS WITHOUT THESES QUALITIES WILL EVENTUALLY DIE OUT.

  7. EVIDENCE FOR EVOLUTION: SIMILAR EMBRYOS.MANY SPECIES SHARE SIMILAR EMBRYONIC DEVELOPMENT.

  8. EVIDENCE FOR EVOLUTION • HOMOLOGIES ( THIS REFERS TO ANY SIMILARITY BETWEEN CHARACTERISTICS OF ORGANISMS THAT IS DUE TO THEIR SHARED ANCESTRY. • DRUG RESISTANT BACTERIA (THIS IS WHEN BACTERIA IN THE BODY EVOLVE TO HAVE THE ABILITY TO WITHSTAND THE EFFECTS OF DRUGS, PARTICULARLY ANTIBIOTICS) • FOSSILS • SIMILAR DNA IN DIFFERENT SPECIES
