Evidence for evolution, in other words evidence of common descent, include fossils, which have shown a (fairly) steady change in morphology over time for some species. An example would be horse hooves: we have fossils that show when they were still three toed, then two toed, then one toe in our present day horses. Another piece of evidence is vestigial organs. An example of vestigial organs is wings in some flightless birds, such as the kiwi. Their ancestors used it in order to fly across the marine barrier into New Zealand, but natural selection and random genetic drift made them quickly lose the ability to fly. Nonetheless, they still have their wings, however small. It can be assumed that eventually, their wings would be reduced to small stubs fused to other nearby bones, as has been observed in their cousins.

Planet earth is the only known region of the universe to host life and so the basic criteria for life is based on observations made here. For an entity to be considered a living organism it must contain DNA or some other means of storing genetic information. The second criteria is that it must have some way of extracting nutrients from its surroundings. The organism must be able to respond to environmental stimulus and last but not least it must be able to reproduce.
Answer: TOXICOLOGY
Explanation: Toxicology is a branch of science that studies that adverse effects that occurs in living organisms when exposed to chemicals and physical agents.
Toxicology deals with risk assessment.
In toxicology, observation and reporting of the symptoms, mechanism of action, detection and treatment of toxic substances when exposed to living organisms especially humans are carried out.
The knowledge of toxicology aids in the advancement of environmental health.
The combining form cancel/o-, as in cancellous bones structures means: lattice structure.
