Lesson 3 - Anatomical Evidence for Evolution
In this video, Mr. Emond goes over some of the anatomical/physiological/morphological evidence for evolution through comparative anatomy. Mr. Emond discusses the presence of homologous structures, analogous structures, and vestigial structures and how they may/may not be evidence for evolution. Mr. Emond also discusses the difference between convergent and divergent evolution and explains how anatomical evidence can be used to identify which has occurred.
