One of the major concepts of comparative anatomy that has the same function but different origin

One of the major concepts of comparative anatomy from convergent evolution; traits arose due to natural selection

Presence of homologous structure is a strong indicator that an organism evolved from common ancestor

Increase similarities among the species derived from different ancestors

Analogous structures of unrelated organisms from different ancestors develop a similar function

Similarities of embryos of different species provides evidence of common ancestor

Individuals lose characteristics they do not acquire or use, and develop characteristics that are useful

An idea that an organism can pass on characteristics that it has acquired during its lifetime to its offspring
