Answer:

Homologies and vestigial structures  are two evidences of the evolution of how DNA and comparative anatomy used to show relatedness

Explanation:

Living organisms have characteristics that make them similar to others, which may suggest that at some point in the history of life on Earth, they shared a common ancestor. When we look at the limbs of a crocodile and a rat, for example, we find that, despite their differences in morphology, they are quite similar in anatomy, suggesting that they may be related. In this case, we say that the characteristic is homologous, that is, it has a similar embryonic origin, but it does not always perform the same function.

Trace structures are structures that are atrophied and have no apparent function in an organism. The presence of these organs can be interpreted as evidence of evolution, since the structure, today without much apparent function, may in the past have been extremely important to the ancestors of that species.

The inner mitochondrial membrane contains numerous inward folds called cristae, which greatly increase the surface area of this
erastova [34]

Answer:the villi of the intestine

Explanation:like the cristae of the mitochondria which increase the surface area for the production of ATP,the villi of the intestine acts similarly.

In animals, digested food pass from the stomach to the intestine. In the intestine , enzymes acts on the food. Absorption of food takes place there and there are some structures that facilitates it. The walls of the intestine have numerous foldings , alongside the presence of finger like projection called villi. Microvilli are also presence from the cell walls of the intestine . These projections increase the surface area for the absorbing of food .they brush against food in the intestine and promotes absorption of nutrients.
