Answer:skeletal evidence of evolution

Explanation:

So I’m not sure the best way to explain this, will edit in one second

So basically some creatures have leftover bones or other features that have no benefit but they also aren’t detrimental, and they are the result of evolution. There is a great video on bad animal skeletons by Sam O Nella Academy, it has some strong languages so inappropriate jokes, probably, all of them do, and this is middle school biology so watch at your own risk, but I think a pint you could bring up that your teacher would be impressed by is really any animal with a weird skeleton, for example dolphins who just have a random bone image where their legs used to be, they obviously don’t have legs but their ancestors did and to this day they still have a random bit of bone where an ancestor of theirs used to have legs, so skeletons help connect what a common ancestor looked like to what the current species looks like through similar bone structure and/or left over bones, such as dolphins who have a plate where an ancestor used to have legs

Human evolution

Human evolution is the lengthy process of change by which people originated from apelike ancestors. Scientific evidence shows that the physical and behavioral traits shared by all people originated from apelike ancestors and evolved over a period of approximately six million years.
One of the earliest defining human traits, bipedalism -- the ability to walk on two legs -- evolved over 4 million years ago. Other important human characteristics -- such as a large and complex brain, the ability to make and use tools, and the capacity for language -- developed more recently. Many advanced traits -- including complex symbolic expression, art, and elaborate cultural diversity -- emerged mainly during the past 100,000 years.
Humans are primates. Physical and genetic similarities show that the modern human species, Homo sapiens, has a very close relationship to another group of primate species, the apes. Humans and the great apes (large apes) of Africa -- chimpanzees (including bonobos, or so-called “pygmy chimpanzees”) and gorillas -- share a common ancestor that lived between 8 and 6 million years ago. Humans first evolved in Africa, and much of human evolution occurred on that continent. The fossils of early humans who lived between 6 and 2 million years ago come entirely from Africa.
Most scientists currently recognize some 15 to 20 different species of early humans. Scientists do not all agree, however, about how these species are related or which ones simply died out. Many early human species -- certainly the majority of them – left no living descendants. Scientists also debate over how to identify and classify particular species of early humans, and about what factors influenced the evolution and extinction of each species.
Early humans first migrated out of Africa into Asia probably between 2 million and 1.8 million years ago. They entered Europe somewhat later, between 1.5 million and 1 million years. Species of modern humans populated many parts of the world much later. For instance, people first came to Australia probably within the past 60,000 years and to the Americas within the past 30,000 years or so. The beginnings of agriculture and the rise of the first civilizations occurred within the past 12,000 years.
