Classify evolution evidence
Middle school students classify different types of evidence used to support evolutionary theory — including fossils, comparative anatomy, and DNA — in this Life Science worksheet on Adaptation and evolution. Teachers can use it as a structured review following a lesson on evolution, helping students organize multiple lines of evidence into clear categories. Classifying evidence reinforces the idea that scientific conclusions are supported by multiple converging sources.
Learning objectives
- Classify types of evidence for evolution, such as fossils and comparative anatomy
