- Use the information and diagram to answer the following question. In humans, the pelvis and femur are involved in walking. Despite the fact modern whales live in water, they contain a pelvis and femur that are common in land dwelling animals. Based on your observation of the whale diagram and your understanding of evidence that supports evolution, what is TRUE about the pelvis and femur found in living whales today? A. They are newly developed structures found in modern whales due to mutations. B. They are examples of fossilized remains of ancient organisms. C. They are traits acquired by modern whales over time as they adapted to living in water. D. They are vestigial structures which are remnants of structures that served a function in the organism’s ancestors.arrow_forwardIllustrate the Evolution of man and briefly explain.

They find that both vertebrates have similar shapes and structures, including the presence of gill slits and tails. How is this comparison of the embryos used as supporting evidence of evolution? A. The similarities suggest that chickens and humans are the direct descendants of modern day fish with tails and gill slits. B. The similarities suggest that vertebrates passthrough each of the adult stages of their evoluntionary history as they develop. C. The similarities suggest that vertebrates can undergo genetic changes during development that lead to the evolution of new species D. The similarities suggest that chickens and humans descend from ancestors with genes that code for the development of tails and gill slitsarrow_forward
