“Dude I just don’t believe that evolution is real.” “What?!?!, why? There is so much evidence to support the theory of evolution.” “In my eyes, I haven't found any evidence that supports evolution so I just don’t believe it.” “Well I’ll show you plenty of evidence that supports it.” First off, there are a few different things that give the most obvious evidence to evolution, and that is: the fossil record, embryology, comparative anatomy, molecular biology, and last but not least, biography/direct observation.
First, let’s start off with what evolution even is. Evolution is the process by which different kinds of living organisms are thought to have developed and diversified from earlier forms during the history of the earth. Next, let’s focus on what the theory of evolution tells us. This theory tells us that various organisms have changed over time and the history of the earth to what we know now in the present. This process includes natural selection which is the process whereby organisms better adapted to their environment tend to survive and produce more offspring. The theory of its action was first fully expounded by Charles Darwin and is now believed to be the main process that brings about evolution.

Comparative anatomy includes homologous structures, analogous structures, vestigial structures. Comparative anatomy is the study of similarities and differences in the anatomy of different species. With comparative anatomy, it shows in many different ways that different kinds of organisms have a common ancestor. With this being said, that provides evidence that various organisms started off in the same spot. Homologous structures shows different kinds of organisms with the same kind of bone structure showing that they started from the same ancestor. Analogous structures are different organisms that gained the same kind of function but for a different
