2. Timothy made the statement that the leg structure of many vertebrate animals can be used to explain their evolutionary ancestry because the
number and location of bones is similar. What evidence provides the BEST
support for using the bone structure of vertebrate animals in establishing
evolutionary ancestry? *
Molecular evidence because biological molecules can establish evolutionary ancestry.
Fossil evidence because fossils show how the bones of vertebrate species share a
common ancestor.
Biogeographical evidence because geographic distribution of organisms can
demonstrate evolutionary relatedness.
Comparative evidence because homologies show how similar structures in different
organisms can be due to evolutionary relatedness.
