Answer:
Anatomy. Species may share similar physical features because the feature was present in a common ancestor (homologous structures).
Molecular biology. DNA and the genetic code reflect the shared ancestry of life. DNA comparisons can show how related species are.
Biogeography. The global distribution of organisms and the unique features of island species reflect evolution and geological change.
Fossils. Fossils document the existence of now-extinct past species that are related to present-day species.
Direct observation. We can directly observe small-scale evolution in organisms with short lifecycles (e.g., pesticide-resistant insects).
1) variation in traits.
population of beetles: equal brown and green numbers in population.
2) differential reproduction.
Natural habitat is in trees. Green leaves hide green beetles.
The brown beetles are noticed by birds in the area.
Birds eat brown beetles.
More green beetles survive than brown beetles
3) heredity
Green beetles reproduce in greater numbers than brown beetles
4) end result
Beetle population changes from brown and green to mostly green beetles.

The correct answer is - 1,180 km.
North America and Europe move away from one another, though on the other end of the plates, the Eurasian and the North American plates are actually merging. Since the rate of moving away is 2 cm per year, and the current distance is 1,184 km between North America and Europe, the distance between them 200,000 years ago was 1,180 km.
To get to the result we only need to multiply the number of years with the annual movement
2 x 200,000 = 400,000
Then divide the result with 100,000, as that is how much cm are in one km
400,000 / 100,000 = 4
And we get 4 km, in this case 4 km less, thus the distance between the two, 200,000 years ago, was 1,180 km.
