What are fossils? What do they tell us about the process of evolution?<br>​
vredina [299]

What is a fossil?

Fossils are fossilised (petrified) remains of animals/plants. A fossil though, is only a fossil, when it is from a different geological era.

How does that relate to evolution?

Evolution and fossils are very related. When we scan the DNA of different fossils, we find that the DNA can be similar to living species we have today, which helps us trace back their origins.

Tracing back a species origins is not something we do just to see how that species changed along time. When we manage to make an evolutionary chart of a species, we know how they changed, what they changed, and maybe not more, but very importantly, when the previous species were extinguished. If we know when they were extinguished, we can find out what caused that extinction:

- A lack of adaptation.

- Lack of resources.

- Temperature changes.

- Increase of predators.

- Deadly migrations.

- Other natural disasters.

So, in other words, by studying one species, we can study our own planet.

Hope it helped,

MS-PS1-4: Develop a model that predicts and describes changes in particle motion, temperature, and state of a pure substance whe
Ksivusya [100]
[Clarification Statement: Emphasis is on qualitative molecular-level models of solids, liquids, and gases to show that adding or removing thermal energy increases or decreases kinetic energy of the particles until a change of state occurs. Examples of models could include drawing and diagrams. Examples of particles could include molecules or inert atoms. Examples of pure substances could include water, carbon dioxide, and helium.]

What are some adaptations of an oxpecker?
k0ka [10]

The oxpeckers are two species of bird which make up the family Buphagidae. Some ornithologists regard them as a subfamily Buphaginae within the starling family, Sturnidae, but they appear to be quite distinct.Oxpeckers are endemic to the savanna of Sub-Saharan Africa. Both the English and scientific names arise from their habit of perching on large mammals (both wild and domesticated) such as cattle, zebras, impalas, hippopotamuses, or rhinoceroses, and eating ticks, small insects, botfly larvae, and other parasites.

According to the more recent studies of Muscicapoidea phylogeny the oxpeckers are an ancient line related to Mimidae (mockingbirds and thrashers) and starlings but not particularly close to either. Considering the known biogeography of these groups, the most plausible explanation seems that the oxpecker lineage originated in Eastern or Southeastern Asia like the other two.This would make the two species of Buphagus something like living fossils, and demonstrates that such remnants of past evolution can possess striking and unique autapomorphic adaptations.
